The Importance of Being Normal: Hey Hey It's Esther Blueburger

Natalie Book writes on Cathy Randall's coming-of-age film Hey Hey It's Esther Blueburger, which centres on the experiences of a teenage girl and in particular the preoccupation with being 'normal'. Thematically, the film is concerned with family dynamics, the perils of adolescence and the construction of identity.
