Ode to Joy

Streaming video - 2019

How does a man who is - literally - paralyzed by happiness find love? Charlie has a condition called cataplexy, a rare disorder that causes him to lose control of his muscles whenever he is overcome by strong emotion, particularly joy. But when the beautiful, spontaneous Francesca (Morena Baccarin) falls for him, the risk-averse Charlie finds himself at a crossroads: suppress his feelings of attraction, or take a chance and let love in?
