Adam is a Moroccan drama film set in the bustling city of Casablanca. Abla, a reserved widow, runs a modest home bakery and raises her young daughter Warda largely in solitude, their days shaped by routine and quiet resilience. This ordered life is disrupted when Samia, a young pregnant woman with nowhere to go, knocks on Abla's door seeking shelter and work. Abla's instinct is to refuse, but Warda's immediate warmth toward the stranger gradually softens her mother's resolve. As Samia settles into their lives, the three women form an unexpected bond that begins to open new possibilities for all of them. Adam is a tender, beautifully observed film about motherhood, solidarity, and the quiet courage of women navigating life on their own terms.
