Norman

What happens when life’s most special and most challenging moments become the DNA double helix of life? In Norman’s case—a quirky, intelligent high school student whose one impulsive act makes him the focus of the school’s attention—it wins him both his first kiss and the affections of a radiantly beautiful classmate, all while his loving, single parent father faces his own mortality. This brilliant script explores it all with compassion, insight and ultimately triumph over adversity. Starring Adam Goldberg, Dan Byrd, Emily Vancamp, Adam Goldberg and Academy Award nominee Richard Jenkins. —Maui Film Festival, 2010
