Published on March 22, 2013

Viasat1 has secured the rights to air Shirley Frimpong-Manso’s Adams Apples series on Saturdays and Sundays at 5:30pm, effective this weekend.

Adams Apples is a 10-chapter cinema movie series created and directed by Shirley Frimpong-Manso and produced by Ken Attoh.

It is set in the hustle and bustle of the city of Accra and its suburbs with glimpses of the exciting metropolis of London.

The movie follows the lives of the four ‘Adams’ Ghanaian women; the widowed, ex-diplomat’s wife and her three daughters in their early and mid thirties.

They work through domestic struggles, family life and personal battles to achieve success and happiness in a fast changing 21st century Ghana where love can elude the hopeless romantic, victory can scorn the hardworking and marriage can be an illusion. The Adams’ seek all these and more from life and each other.

The first chapter will air on Saturday, followed by the second on Sunday at 5:30pm.

Chapter 1: The Family Ties

Meet the Adams women for the first time in what will be an exciting and unforgettable journey as we turn the chapters in the lives of these dynamic 21st century Ghanaian women.

Jennifer, Baaba and Kukua have a surprise in store for their mother on her birthday but the surprise is almost ruined as Mrs. Adams arrives home with a surprise of her own. Meanwhile, Baaba struggles to forgive her estranged husband for his indiscretions whiles her own tears her apart.

Kukua is faced with a ghost from her past that threatens to destroy her career and expose a secret she’s sacrificed a lot to keep buried. The fiercely independent and strong willed Jennifer drives her assistant to a diabolical plan that could spell her demise and Mrs. Adams gets an education on the rules of dating in modern Ghana, whiles the mystery of a land court case and an unlikely stalker drives a young teacher to seek help for legal action.

Tears, laughter, love and a strong need to succeed drive these women and the men in their lives to seek more from life and each other in this explosive maiden chapter of ‘ADAMS APPLES’ – Showing on Viasat1 this Saturday at 5:30pm.

Leading the pack of actors are Joselyn Dumas, Naa Ashorkor, Yvonne Okoro and Anima Misa Amoah.
