Is there more to Adam then the eye meets?

Temptation takes on a wickedly delicious new flavour in About Adam, as every character is seduced. . . all by the same mysterious man: the sinfully sweet Adam.

Like Adam's Garden of Eden counterpart, this sexy modern Dubliner has become the apple of one woman’s eye, and everyone else’s forbidden fruit. It all begins with Lucy Owen (Kate Hudson), a torch singer in a hip Dublin cafe, who’s had countless love affairs.

Enter Adam (Stuart Townsend), her seemingly perfect man. From the minute she spots the handsome stranger, Lucy’s world begins to change.

Adam is boyish, kind and eminently loveable, and he fulfils Lucy’s need for wild spontaneity while allowing her for the first time to feel the lure of commitment.

Although she’s long avoided the L word there’s no doubt about it: Lucy has fallen. Best of all, Adam seems to really fit into Lucy’s close-knit Dublin family, winning over her two sisters, literary Laura (Frances O'Connor) and sophisticated Alice (Charlotte Bradley), as well as her mother (Rosaleen Linehan) with his devastating charms.

Even younger brother David (Alan Maher) is mesmerised. But is there more 'About Adam' than the Owens family imagines?
