Requirements to be a normal person

The Instituto Cervantes in Leeds presents Hispanic Women Filmmakers, a new free cinema series to take place every Friday of June. Being a feminist cinema series, Spanish scriptwriter, actress and director Leticia Dolera had to be on it. She is one of the most critical and active voices of Spain's seventh art and from the very beginning of #MeToo movement she raised her voice. 'Requirements to be a normal person' ('Requisitos para ser una persona normal', 2015) was her debut feature, an oustanding directorial start.

María is 30 years old. She is a peculiar person with one goal: to become a normal person. So, after listing every trait she deems necessary to be a normal person, she resolves to attain them. During her journey, Maria will be helped by her brother, Alex; a young man with mental disabilities who, surprisingly, already has all the characteristics written in her list. María will also meet Borja, a guy obsessed with losing weight, and they will make a curious pact: she will help him lead a healthier life and he will help her achieve her goal.
