If I Had Legs I’d Kick You

  Mary Bronstein  |  U.S.

With her life crashing down around her, Linda (Rose Byrne) attempts to navigate her child’s mysterious illness, her absent husband, a missing person, and an increasingly hostile relationship with her therapist. With the whiplash pace of a thriller, writer-director Mary Bronstein takes audiences into a breathtakingly inventive, unexpectedly funny, yet startlingly relatable fever-dream of parental anxiety. Rose Byrne gives a one-of-a-kind cinematic portrait of ultra-pressurized motherhood.
