Normaal Zijn We Anders plot
'I know what I want,' says a self-confident mentally retarded woman. At the same time, she is painfully aware of the impossibility of some of her desires and dreams. In Normally we are different, four mentally handicapped people give expression to their emotional world. Compared to their daily routine - doing the laundry, calling, shaving, withdrawing money, vacuuming to music, getting a herring - their lives turn out to be as normal as usual. With the camera often close to the skin, the viewer gets the chance to get to know and feel the personality, dreams, interests and emotions of Fran, Dionne, Maurits and Bertus.
