Description

Norma is a darkly comedic exploration of widowhood and online anonymity. After decades of marriage and family responsibility, Norma finds herself free to indulge in a virtual world of cancelled soap operas, message boards, and grocery store focus groups. She transcribes the chatter of strangers for a living, immersing herself in humanity's grim, funny, and desperate moments. As she navigates this new world, boundaries begin to blur between online and offline life. A voice from one of her transcripts becomes all too real, appearing in her physical surroundings with unsettling frequency. This is Norma's story - a tart and unhinged flail into widowhood, the parasocial, and the darker corners of the internet.
