The Boy Who Was Wood Allen

John O'Leary is an 18 year old 6' 3" blond Catholic boy standing in line to meet his school careers officer. He has absolutely no idea what he would like to do with his life. However, being Catholic, he is allowed at least one epiphany in his life and, luckily, his arrives now. He is going to be Woody Allen!

Follow a number of surreal episodes which include John/Woody having to convince his mother, (who spends a lot of her day knitting crucifixes for her priest), to accept his new Jewish faith and persona; meeting a nihilist goth at a house of mourning, and marrying her only to find out shortly after saying " I do" that she is a lesbian; discovering therapy and developing a stand-up comedy routine. 

As success and fame beckons and a second romance blossoms with a baker of phallic patisserie, Woody realises that all is not as it seems, when at a retro Annie Hall party he meets a second Woody Allen, an undercover agent for the C.I.A.
