Adam – An Asperger’s love story

Just found out about Adam. Ah. How sweet!

In this heartfelt romantic comedy, Hugh Dancy (THE JANE AUSTEN BOOK CLUB, CONFESSIONS OF A SHOPAHOLIC) stars as Adam, a handsome but intriguing young man who has all his life led a sheltered existence – until he meets his new neighbor, Beth (Rose Byrne, “Damages,” 28 WEEKS LATER, KNOWING).

It’s already won an award at the Sundance Film Festival, and was the closing night premiere at the Edinburgh Film Festival at the end of June. It’s in US cinemas July 29th and in the UK on August 7th.
