In this heartfelt romantic comedy, Hugh Dancy (The Jane Austen Book Club, Confessions of a Shopaholic) stars as Adam, a handsome, intriguing young man with Asperger's Syndrome who has led a very isolated life - until he meets his new neighbor, Beth (Rose Byrne, Damages, 28 Weeks Later), a beautiful, cosmopolitan young woman who pulls him out of his shell with funny, touching, and entirely unexpected results.
SPECIAL GUEST Q&A ANNOUNCED
The Northwest Louisiana Autism Chapter will host a post-screening discussion of the film Adam following the 3:00 PM screening on Saturday, September 19. Our guests will be young people living with Asperger's Syndrome, a condition which is depicted in the film. Advance ticket purchase recommended.
"This is an affirmation that it's still possible to find smart movies about one of the most basic aspects of the human experience: falling in love."
