A feature film currently in early production, ADAM’S APPLE is an unconventional coming-of-age documentary from the perspectives of Director Amy Jenkins and her teenage transgender son, Adam. Collaboratively they will trace the transition of Adam from pre- pubescent Audrey to evolving-young-man Adam in an exploration of what characterizes “maleness” for today’s gender-redefining youth.

The film’s production will continue through 2022. Planned release is early 2023.
