Description

A gripping love story set in 19th-century Norway, "Becoming Leidah" follows the journey of a woman rescued from the sea and her family's struggles to navigate their unique gifts. Against the backdrop of an austere village, a young girl with extraordinary abilities must learn to control her powers and confront the dangers that come with them. As the seasons change, the girl's mother, Maeva, worries about her daughter's blossoming gifts, while her husband Pieter seeks acceptance for his family from their community. But as tensions rise, an inquisitive shapeshifter watches from the shadows, waiting for the Fates to spin their web. As Maeva's past begins to beckon, she must help her daughter navigate her birthright and survive in a world that fears the unknown. The story is a heart-wrenching exploration of love, acceptance, and the struggle to find one's place in the world.
