| SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
ADORATION speaks to our connections—with each other,
with our family history, with technology and with the modern
world. Sabine (ARSINÉE KHANJIAN), a high school French
teacher, gives her class a translation exercise based on a
real news story about a terrorist who plants a bomb in the
airline luggage of his pregnant girlfriend.
The assignment has a profound effect on one student, Simon
(DEVON BOSTICK), who lives with his uncle (SCOTT SPEEDMAN).
In the course of translating, Simon re-imagines that the news
item is his own family's story, with the terrorist standing
in for his father. Years ago, Simon's father (NOAM JENKINS)
crashed the family car, killing both himself and his wife
(RACHEL BLANCHARD), making Simon an orphan. Simon has always
feared that the accident was intentional.
Simon reads his version to the class and then takes it to
the Internet. In essence, he has created a false identity
which allows him to probe his family secret. As Simon uses
his new persona to journey deeper into his past, the public
reaction is swift and strong. Then an exotic woman reveals
her true identity. The truth about Simon's family emerges.
The mystery is solved and a new family is formed.
