Milan City Film School Luchino Visconti

The search for a "fabulous creature" said to exist in the waters of Lake Como leads us to meet Norma, a woman who 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. Our imagination meets and dialogues with Norma's reality and memories: her past in Peru, the path to self-acceptance, and her transformation, which is still in progress.

In the midst of a torrid summer, in which climate change appears once again in all its unstoppable power, the protagonist, a young French woman, calls her mother, telling her in an agitated manner that she feels crushed by the city atmosphere and that she is about to leave for a trip.
