My wings became my legs.

About This Movie

So, 'My Wings Became My Legs' is really quite an introspective piece. It’s set during one last hurrah for three women, each grappling with the weight of adulthood while reminiscing about their carefree collegiate days. The pacing is, at times, intentionally slow, which feels like a reflection of their stagnation—really makes you sit with their emotions. The performances feel raw and genuine, capturing that awkwardness of transitioning into adulthood. The film uses practical effects sparingly, emphasizing the emotional over the extravagant, which I think works beautifully here. There’s a dreamy, almost nostalgic atmosphere throughout, making it a unique exploration of friendship and fear of growing up. It lingers in your mind long after the credits roll.
