"GORK!" traces the unusual life of Adam Terrill ­a loud, charismatic,
flag-twirling red-head who has a compelling mix of creative talents and
developmental disabilities. From his early years as a foster child, through
high school graduation, to his present placement in a group home in Iowa,
the film explores the comedy, conflict, hopes and frustrations that arise
within his 7-member family as Adam's life unfolds, focusing in particular
on his impact on his older sister, Autumn. Scenes from Autumn's comical
and irreverent award-winning stage play are interwoven into the film, bringing
to life the stories of Adam's youth.
