The Heart is Deceitful Above All Things is a film portraying the life of a young boy who is subjected to numerous forms of child abuse, including beatings, drug abuse, and rape.
It was supposedly based on the life of author J. T. Leroy, although this was proven to be untrue: the novel on which the film is based was written by a female author who paid actors to attend events as "J. T. Leroy".
Jeremiah at 7 is played by Jimmy Bennett, whilst Cole and Dylan Sprouse share the role of the character at 11.
The film contains some very disturbing scenes.
