Sundance Films- Like Crazy is a film from and about the heart. Jacob, an American, and Anna, who is British, meet at college in Los Angeles and fall madly in love.

Their perfect love is tested, and youth, trust, and geography become their biggest enemies I melt with you On the surface, they look like other men going through life: they have careers and families and responsibilities.
