Adam’s Apples is an experimental dance film that deals with mobbing at workplace and mass behavior. It’s a story of factory workers who end up as victims of their own behavior.

Two factory workers seem to compete for the attention of the same man. Yet the man is only an object in the background, just a side issue and one of the million reasons to start a fight. The agony and weird behavior is spreading around the factory and everyone has to choose a side.

Adam’s Apples is a dance film that deals with mobbing at the workplace and mass behavior by incorporating scenes based on true stories.
