If You Want - Love, if You Want - Don't...

About This Movie

If You Want - Love, if You Want - Don't... is this quiet exploration of longing and the challenges of single motherhood. Katerina's search for connection plays out against a backdrop of everyday life, infused with a sense of melancholy. The pacing feels reflective, making you really sit with her moments of hope and despair. It’s not flashy; the performances are raw and genuine, capturing the struggles of finding love when life is already complicated. The atmosphere is both intimate and slightly uncomfortable, which I think adds to its depth. It's distinctive in how it handles relationships—realistic, messy, and not always rewarding. You can really feel the weight of Katerina's choices throughout the film.
