BROKEN PEOPLE

&;He fixes everything that&;s wrong with you in three days.&;This is the alluring promise that first hooks Sam when he overhears it at a party in the Hollywood Hills: the story of a globe-trotting master healer who claims to perform &;open-soul surgery&; on the emotionally damaged. And the shaman seems convincing&;enough for neurotic depressed Sam to sign up for a weekend under his care. But as Sam begins his slippery descent into the seductive world of modern mysticism he&;ll be forced to reckon with his troubled past his self-delusions and the very nature of what it means to be well.At turns tender and acid bracing and wise Broken People is a dazzling modern parable about hope faith and the stories we tell ourselves about who we are.
