The Hypnotist's Assistant

When 13-year-old Gary Crockett hypnotizes Earl Lancaster and Earl rises from his wheelchair everything changes for both of them. Gary suspects Earl of lying about his paralysis and Gary's mom becomes romantically entangled with Earl. All three are run out of town. This is a breezy look at race relations, ladyboys, virginity, snake-biting churches, addiction, recovery, and meditation. All sprinkled with a bit of sarcastic humor.
