Adam’s Apple is the story of Ivan is an insanely optimistic preacher who takes in convicts to help around the remote, rural church he ministers to. His current charges are a psychotic Saudi immigrant addicted to robbing gas stations and an alcoholic tennis pro convicted of sexual assault. His newest “helper” is Adam, a vicious neo-Nazi anxiously biding his time before he can return to hell-raising. Asked to set a goal for his stay, Adam sarcastically answers that he’d like to bake a cake. Ivan 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.
