Adam Sutton’s story first came to public attention just 2 days before the Academy Awards in a front-page story in the Sydney Morning Herald, which generated a surprisingly large reader response – and changed Adam Sutton’s life in unexpected ways.
He is currently single (or at least when this film was shot) and is looking for his soulmate.
