Nola

A história

Sinopse em inglês

Nola tells the harrowing story of sisters Nola (9) and Liza (15), who grow up in a household scarred by neglect, poverty and domestic violence. Their mother Gina struggles with a drinking problem and constantly oversteps her role as a parent. Despite the hopeless situation, the girls seek solace in small, tender moments together. Liza assumes the role of care figure, but their attempts to maintain some normality are undermined each time. When the situation escalates, child protection intervenes. Nola is a poignant and moving short film about how important it is for a child to be able to grow up in a loving, safe environment. Through the eyes of two children, the film takes a confrontational look at a reality where parental care is lacking and children have to grow up too early. Nola emphasises the need for warmth, stability and protection in a child's formative years.
