The movie "Norita" is generating significant attention since its release, with a complete list of cinemas where it can be seen in CABA, Greater Buenos Aires, La Plata, and Mar del Plata. Francisco Villa, one of the producers, highlights that "People are returning some of the love that Nora Cortiñas, the protagonist of the documentary, has generated."
The premiere of a film always generates anxiety among its producers, who wonder if the audience will respond. Villa expresses exhaustion and relief as he sees that Norita continues to be a success in the most challenging venues. The number of viewers in the first weeks will determine the future of the film in theaters.
The impact of Norita as a reference for the Mothers of Plaza de Mayo sparks a collective movement and a sense of militant responsibility. Word of mouth has been key to the film's success, which defies expectations by being a documentary. Next Thursday, it will be decided whether it will continue in commercial theaters.
The film combines cultural consumption and political activism, offering a different experience for the audience amid the economic crisis. Since its premiere, it has surprised many with the number of viewers it has attracted, demonstrating that people seek group cinema experiences. The documentary shows the growth of the project over 7 years, from its early scenes to Nora Cortiñas' participation in the film.
