Around the World monthly film series presents "Adams Apples"

12 Mar 2008

THE REHOBOTH BEACH FILM SOCIETY AND THE LEWES PUBLIC LIBRARY C0-PRESENT ADAM’S APPLES. The Rehoboth Beach Film Society and the Lewes Public Library co-sponsor a monthly film series titled Around the World which features critically acclaimed, award-winning, international, independent films. The film series has moved to the more comfortable environs of the upstairs screening room at the Movies at Midway, at the more convenient time of 7:00 PM. The next session takes place on March 12, 2008 and will feature a screening of Adam’s Apples. Adam, a vicious neo-Nazi anxiously biding his time before he can return to hell-raising, is sentenced to community service at a small church in the countryside. Asked to set a goal for his stay, Adam sarcastically answers that he’d like to bake a pie. His supervisor, Ivan the priest, cheerfully takes that statement at face value and puts him in charge of the parish’s pride and joy: the only apple tree in the vicinity. Grasping the extent of Ivan’s crazed, preternatural determination to look on the bright side of everything, Adam immediately decides to shake him out of his rose-colored stupor. Denmark selected Adam’s Apples as their official Academy Award® Submission for Best Foreign Language Film. [2005, Runtime: 94 min., Rated: R, Danish with English subtitles] Around the World is free and open to the public.
