I wanted to be me

About This Movie

I wanted to be me is a raw and introspective drama that captures the tumultuous aftermath of a breakup. Mari's journey is a mix of liberation and uncertainty, which is portrayed through a blend of understated performances and an intimate visual style. The pacing feels a bit like life itself—meandering at times but always building tension as she grapples with her newfound freedom. The atmosphere is thick with emotional realism, and there's a distinct lack of theatrics that keeps things grounded. It doesn’t shy away from showing the messiness of personal choices, which gives the film a unique flavor. It’s not just about the end of a relationship; it's about rediscovering oneself amidst the chaos.
