Summary:
In 1959, psychiatrist Dr. Alan Stone arrives at a mental hospital in Ypsilanti, Michigan armed with the radical belief that schizophrenic patients should be treated with empathy and understanding. As his first study, he takes on the particularly challenging case of three men: Joseph, Leon, and Clyde, each of whom believes they are Jesus Christ. Dr. Stone begins a risky, unprecedented experiment that will push the boundaries of psychiatric medicine and leave everyone involved profoundly changed.
