YouTube Description
as posted by the channel“Why can’t you be different? Why does everyone have to look the same and do as the group does?” 13-year-old Ninnoc wants to know. The headstrong Dutch middle-school student is the subject of Nikki Padidar’s award-winning short documentary, Ninnoc, an experimental window into a personal struggle with nonconformity. In the film, Ninnoc struggles to reconcile her need to belong—and to feel seen—with her inherent desire to be an individual. She doesn’t want to be like everyone else, yet she knows that that decision will come at a cost.
"Ninnoc" was directed by Niki Padidar (). It is part of The Atlantic Selects, an online showcase of short documentaries from independent creators, curated by The Atlantic.
