About This Movie

If you don't wanna know, go away (2022) is a raw and intimate documentary that captures the essence of New York City during the chaos of the COVID-19 pandemic. Through thirteen personal testimonies from the Latinx community, it dives deep into the lived experiences of those navigating the crisis. The pacing feels almost contemplative, allowing each story to breathe, and the tone shifts from somber to resilient, reflecting the diverse emotions of survival. There's an authenticity here that's hard to shake, with real people sharing the tough realities they faced. The film's strength lies in its simplicity—no flashy effects or gimmicks, just the power of voice and experience in a city that never sleeps but was forced to pause.
