Description

Centered on the life of Adam, a transgender teen, as seen through the lens of his mother, filmmaker Amy Jenkins, ADAM'S APPLE chronicles two decades of adolescence, transition, and parenthood. Adam’s journey balances the milestones of gender transition with the rhythms of adolescence. Every coming-of-age milestone (first love, an emerging personality, teenage rebellion) unfolds with intimacy and grace. It’s a celebration of courage, love, allyship, and the thrill of becoming who you are meant to be.
