The Sessions Trailer – A disabled John Hawkes tries to lose his virginity

Don’t be surprised if John Hawkes’ name comes up during awards season for The Sessions. Based on the autobiographical writings of California-based journalist and poet Mark O’Brien, The Sessions tells the story of a man confined to an iron lung who is determined – at age 38 – to lose his virginity. With the help of his therapists and the guidance of his priest, he sets out to make his dream a reality and meets a sex therapist (Helen Hunt).
