Transitions can be tricky. Returning to her hometown after abandoning her music career, Nora finds it difficult to settle into the new demands of suburban motherhood. When her husband goes on tour and leaves her solo-parenting their precocious six-year-old, Nora is forced to evaluate her current circumstances and the dreams she left behind. A visceral portrait of a woman in transition, Anna Campbell's directorial debut expertly cuts together Nora's musical imagination with her day-to-day responsibilities -- interweaving vibrant fantasy sequences set to an upbeat indie rock soundtrack. Featuring performances by Campbell, Lesley Ann Warren, Kate Miner, Jay Walker, and Nick Fink as well as original music by The Airborne Toxic Event's Noah Harmon, NORA is an honest look at the pressures created by modern motherhood and the tension between a mother's dreams and those she has for her family.
