Adam’s journey, like all of ours, is one worth taking no matter the final outcome or destination. The people met along the way, all have an impact, even if they don’t have answers.

Suffice it to say, that whatever conventional circumstances exist in the real world concerning lost and found children, best to enter this tale of somewhat biblical proportions as suggested in the title, with an extraordinarily open mind.

A stack of differing tones keep threatening to throw this film off balance, but this is the kind of indie film that gets by on its episodic structure allowing for a new character to emerge every so often and bring in a new energy to keep things likable.

While much of the story feels like a string of missed opportunities to delve deeper into the characters and themes, I appreciate what this earnest self-discovery drama is going for. The material is universal, ringing with truth and sincerity.

Despite a refreshingly slow-burning pace and exquisite cinematography with visual style that evokes the works of David Lean, the film isn't as suspenseful or engrossing as it could've been with a more profound and unflinching screenplay.

3/4

Adam the First is an incredibly universal story. It digs deep into the themes of growing up, the fathers that raise us, and what it means to be a good man. These types of stories linger long in our hearts.
