Don’t Worry, He Won’t Get Far on Foot

(Bio, Comedy, Drama)

No-hoper John Callahan (Joaquin Phoenix) is happy being directionless until a serious car accident unexpectedly changes the course of his life. Lucky to be alive, he’s confined to a wheelchair with limited use of his hands and arms. John’s pain is raw and he is using alcohol as a crutch. An addiction treatment programme, the support of his girlfriend, Annu (Rooney Mara), and his sponsor Donnie (Jonah Hill), help Callahan carve a unique new future for himself. This uplifting journey of forgiveness is based on a true story.
