Born with a rare genetic defect, 15-year-old Adam Bowes lost both his legs at an early age. Feeling vulnerable in the wake of his parent's divorce, he confides in a house-guest, an older woman. What begins as an act of kindness however soon turns into an act of seduction as he is lured into having sex, and when the fact at last emerges months later, Adam finds himself swept into a painful and prolonged court battle that will change his life forever. Narrated by Adam and combining family archival with stylized superhero noir dramatizations, The Rise of AJ Domino is a harrowing true story of sexual assault and one man's struggle to put his trauma behind him.
