"Zig Zag" is a very depressing 2002 American Indie comedy/drama film.

An autistic 15 year old boy steals money from his boss to provide rent for his abusive father, Blade, who uses the money to repay a loan shark, the bad guy from "Blade 2". This movie also stars Natasha Lyonne who ages at half the rate of a normal person, and Oliver Platt who plays Yosemite Sam.

John Leguizamo plays the role of Dean Singer, a friend and 'big brother' to Zig Zag who helps him to return the money to his boss and shows him porn.
