Everyone, supposedly, knows a Norman. They're people that exist on the fringes of your social circle, desperate to be part of the crowd, desperate to be essential.
Richard Gere's Norman is a Jewish fixer in New York. He trades in the currency of favours. If you've got a problem, he's got the answer. He knows a guy.
Directed by award-winning Israeli director Joseph Cedar, Norman is a unique proposition. It is both vague and incredibly detailed at the same time.
We never know exactly who Norman is, where he lives or what he really does. And yet, we watch as he creates and gets caught in an elaborate web of half-truths and broken promises.
