Richard Gere is an experimental psychiatrist with three patients (Peter Dinklage, Walton Goggins and Bradley Whitford) who each believe they are Jesus Christ in this true story drama.
Staunchly opposed to confinement and electroshock therapy as an effective treatment for schizophrenia, Dr. Alan Stone (Gene) hopes that he can break through his three patients by simply getting them together in the same room to confront their delusions. And so he begins a risky experiment that will push the boundaries of psychiatric medicine and leave everyone involved profoundly changed.

Slant Magazine"Call it Lord, Interrupted or One Flew Over the Crucifix, this is a tedious slog that fails even to hit the emotional marks of the most formulaic nut-house movie."
