If Your Heart Wants It (Remix)

About This Movie

If Your Heart Wants It (Remix) offers a unique glimpse into the world of venture capitalism through the eyes of Finnish artist Pilvi Takala. She creates a faux start-up to infiltrate SLUSH, a conference full of inflated egos and aggressive networking. The tone is intriguing, almost surreal, with this mix of earnestness and artifice that leaves you questioning the nature of success and authenticity. The pacing is contemplative, allowing moments to breathe amidst the chaos of pitch meetings and power plays. Takala's performance—if you can call it that—blurs the line between art and reality, making the film distinctive in its exploration of how narratives are constructed in this high-stakes environment. It’s a thought-provoking piece that sticks with you.
