The #OregonMade feature film “Nora” premieres at Cinequest on March 15th and 18th.
Having given up on her career, Nora returns to her hometown to focus on her precocious six year old, a new house, a new school year, and the place she deliberately left behind. Her dreams and ambitions, however, have different plans.
