A creative challenge to Life. The narration in first person of a survivor of one the most devastating female illnesses who, when informed she has a cancer, decides to turn this tough experience into an artistic ensemble project.

Thanks to meetings of sharing with artists who made the same experience, Alessandra, despite a frequent physical suffering, manages to achieve what might have seemed impossible: NOMA.

An autobiographical Docu-Film which proves the importance of music and art to fight the obsession of the disease.

An extraordinary journey to find herself back, to rediscover the essence, to reject what is unnecessary.

The Documentary was inspired by its Original Music Score, composed and recorded before the shooting in a noma-dic journey made by Alessandra and Tommaso AKA Plot Noir.

The subject and the screenplay are based on the short-story "NOMA: from the magnetic resonance tube to the places of my rebirth" written by Alessandra.
