Desc: A.D.A.M: The Beginning: Directed by Melissa Caudle. With Jaqueline Fleming, Clyde Risley Jones, Jack E. Curenton, Stephen Beal. A.D.A.M. is a Sci-Fi story based off the NASA discovery of a new life form that thrives off of arsenic instead of phosphorus. At its core, A.D.A.M. reflects present day scientific contradictions, insecurities of our national defense system on perceived national threats, and examines the stages and emotions of facing death.
