After completing a stay at a psychiatric hospital, Pia moves back home and must navigate life's many challenges while also managing her own mental health.

All Pia wants is to be «normal» again. During the time she’s been away, her friends, family, and the world she once knew have changed drastically. How to Be Normal and the Oddness of the Other World is a visionary and deeply empathetic debut from director Florian Pochlatko, about a young woman searching for meaning in a world spinning out of control. Slowly but surely, she begins to change – either into a monster that threatens to destroy everything, or into a hero who might be the only one able to save it.
