“Thinner is cuter” “Taller is more attractive” “It’s better not to have arm hair” “This is how men should act”
Adolescence is a time when you come up against seemingly unsolvable problems that arise from trying to measure up to the “normal” of others or even your own idea of what’s “normal.”
It’s a time when many people experience anxiety from the gap they feel exist between who they really are and what’s unconsciously established as “normal” in their communities.
This short film features 5 people’s 5 different “normal,” inspiring us to think about what “comfortable normal” is for each of us rather than trying to live by someone else’s “normal.”
