Extraordinary Me

Heartwarming feelgood film about equality, belonging, and the pursuit of the confidence to be true to oneself.

Ola is just turning 30. He lives with many different people in Vidaråsen, a small village just outside the city of Tønsberg in Norway. He’s mostly content, and he’s an enthusiastic, fun, and honest guy. And there is one more thing: Ola was born with a mild intellectual disability. He speaks openly, curious about his own condition, all the while wondering if other people see him mainly as a person with a diagnosis. Why can’t he just be Ola?

In search of freedom and independence, Ola sets out on a courageous journey to break through barriers and to become more self-reliant.
