A sex comedy turned gender comedy
Shy and self-conscious high school student Adam is in for the summer of a lifetime when he goes to spend his vacation with his older sister Casey in New York. Casey is a part of a free-spirited LGBTQ crowd and when the beautiful Gillian takes an interest in him thinking he’s a trans man, Adam’s luck with the ladies seems to be on the rise. Infusing traditional high school movie tropes with a decidedly woke sensibility, ADAM is a comedy of manners that tackles complex themes in an inclusive, relatable and funny way.
