What would you do if you found out your father may have been a terrorist? A high school boy writes a story for class that makes this claim. Is it true? Friends, family, teachers and internet chat-room partners start to wonder and worry. Now he must journey through a maze of family secrets to find the truth about his dead father. From Academy Award®-nominated director Atom Egoyan (1997, Best Director, The Sweet Hereafter) comes a story of a young man who must question everything he knows in order to learn who he is and who his father was. Adoration presents a world where there is no such thing as us versus them and the truth is never as simple as right and wrong.

Reviews

Bay Area Reporter

David Lamble

This is a real treat for fans of early Egoyan films like Next of Kin or Speaking Parts.

Adoration is a triumph, a provocative work about terror in the world and in people's hearts.

Clearly fascinated by the power of new technology and the fact that anyone is able to broadcast their thoughts, Egoyan has made an engrossing movie with an intriguing, original plot.

Adoration spins an intricate weave of deception, an avatar maze in which almost every character is revealed to have more than one persona.

In Egoyanland it's always winter, but that can be reassuring.
