They Say I Am Not Normal.

In a society as warped as ours, who has the right to call themselves "normal"? Six teenage boys, locked inside their New York apartment for years, understand the world through their collection of 5,000 movies. An invisible army of overworked gig workers scrubs your social media feeds clean—out of sight, out of mind. Three adult women, posing as underage girls online, expose over 2,000 suspected child predators. In the U.S., a teen kills another—over a pair of rare, resold Air Jordans. Elsewhere, a group of people worship Satan—not to spread evil, but to resist the suffocating grip of far-right religious politics. So—are these people “normal”? Are they not? And who gets to decide what “normal” even means? Giloo presents 10 documentaries that explore the lives of those often labeled as “abnormal”—but who, in their own ways, might just be the most honest reflections of our times.
