We're Normally Different

The Netherlands 2006 • 67 mins • Director: Susanne Engels • Subtitled

Presented by IHC

Meet Dionne, Fran, Bertus and Maurits, four Dutch actors with mental disabilities. We’re Normally Different invites us into their very recognisably familiar everyday life.

A world that is normally viewed at a discreet distance is uncovered in intimate detail. The boundaries between play and reality fade as their dreams and desires take central stage. Told in beautiful images, this is a warm, poetic and touching fi lm that deeply penetrates the existence of people with a mental disability.

A twenty minute speakers' panel follows every screening:

• Auckland Speaker Panels
