Adams Morgan: The Movie is a romantic comedy that takes place over the course of Halloween Weekend in Adams Morgan. The story follows the actions of three couples: Richard and Shelby, who are a happily married but somewhat bored couple; Tonya and Lance, who are breaking up after nine months of dating; and John and Audrey, who are going out on their first official date after having intimate relations at a party the previous evening. The story is character based and dialogue driven, with each of the main characters, their friends and the quirky inhabitants of Adams Morgan, offering their opinions and commentary on relationships between the sexes.

Richard and Shelby find themselves at an interesting point in their relationship. They are happily married with a young daughter, but each find themselves somewhat frustrated at the lack of excitement in their lives. Richard has grown complacent at work and home, taking important things around him for granted, while Shelby is feeling unfulfilled both physically and professionally.

Tonya and Lance have had a fun filled relationship. Lance is charming and handsome, the perfect counterpart to the beautiful and talented Tonya.  To the outside observer they look like the perfect couple. But Tonya has grown tired of Lance’s lack of direction and irresponsibility.  Lance usually has his heart in the right place, but he often fails to keep his promises. Tonya's patience is constantly tested by Lance. She is very driven and ambitious and expects her mate to be the same.

John and Audrey have a strong physical attraction to another, but after some initial flirting and intimacy, they need to figure out if they are actually compatible.  Further complicating matters is that someone from Audrey's past is threatening to destroy any future the two of them might have together. Both seem like they want to start a new relationship, but they may not be in a position to try.

The story seeks to point out that there are two sides to every relationship and that each party has insecurities and concerns about themselves and their partner. Adams Morgan serves as the backdrop for all the action and functions as a character as well. The eclectic, diverse and unique nature of the neighborhood lends itself to unusual events that offer humor while driving the story.
