Julien Donkey-Boy
Young Julien suffers from undiagnosed and untreated schizophrenia. He lives in Queens with his pregnant sister, his brother who aspires to become a professional wrestler, and his strict German father. A mosaic of the scenes from the family’s everyday life provides a disturbing but emphatic insight into a mentally handicapped person.
