About
"Norma tells a domestic story, the story of a very special family. A theme that plays a role in every family is the secret. Norma is secretly in love with an enemy of the country. And from this union, two children are born whose parentage must be kept secret. At the center of this exciting story is a very strong woman: she is the spiritual leader, the priestess of her people, but she also has a political function. She is also a mother and a lover. Many aspects of female identity are combined in her character. This very, very strong, very complex female figure is at the mercy of an extremely patriarchal system against which she has to assert herself. She is in search of freedom - her personal freedom in a patriarchal structure." (Cyril Teste)
