Crazy Sexy Cancer is a documentary about Kris Carr, a young woman who goes on a journey to save her health with alternative medicine and macro-biotic diets after being diagnosed with terminal cancer. The film, shown at a Chicago film festival and recently aired on TLC, follows Kris as she travels the country researching holistic medicines. She meets other women who share the same situation. I’m looking forward to seeing the film, as I am inspired by her will to creatively share her story. The embed code was disabled, but you can check out the trailer here.  An irreverent and uplifting documentary, Crazy Sexy Cancer is the story of 31-year-old Kris Carr, an aspiring actress from New York whose life was put on hold when she was diagnosed with a rare and incurable stage IV vascular cancer. Carr decided to film her search for treatment just weeks after her diagnosis and the result is a funny, touching and honest film about what it’s like to live with a potentially terminal disease when life is just beginning. As Carr transforms into a “healing junkie” we follow her to alternative medicine fares and to the homes of macro-biotic chefs, we watch her down vegetable smoothies and barium to prepare for CT scans, but her exuberance, humor and sass never leave her. Along the way Carr reaches out to other remarkable women living with the disease and discovers the true meaning of “healing.” As funny as it is frightening and as joyous as it is angry, Crazy Sexy Cancer challenges the common ideas about cancer and transforms a seemingly tragic situation into a profound statement about life.
