A NORMA IS A 43 MINUTE DOCUMENTARY FILM AND PIECE, CO-WRITTEN AND DIRECTED BY CARLOTTA COSMAI, MICHELA ZOLFO, MARYAM SHATER JANNATI AND PEDRO PABLO HDEO.

The search for a "fabulous creature" said to exist in the waters of Lake Como leads us to meet Norma, a woman who still represents a taboo in our society. In this way, it begins a journey of deconstruction of our desires, expectations, and prejudices, reflecting on the concept of femininity, gender and sex work. Our imagination meets and dialogues with Norma's reality and memories: her work, her past in Peru, her transition, the path to self-acceptance and her transformation, which is still in progress.

THE FILM IS BORN FROM THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE FILMMAKERS WITH NORMA AND A DIALOGUE BETWEEN EXPECTATIONS AND REALITY MOVING US IN A REFLECTION ON
SEX WORK, GENDER, IDENTITY AND BECOMING.
