I Wanted Pants

About This Movie

I Wanted Pants is a gritty exploration of gender roles and rebellion, set against a backdrop of Sicilian family dynamics. The film dives into Annetta's struggle for autonomy, showing her frustrations with societal norms through an emotive lens. The pacing can feel a bit uneven at times, but it captures a raw, almost claustrophobic atmosphere, especially during the tense family scenes. The performances are solid, particularly in the way they convey the oppressive weight of tradition versus personal freedom. The practical effects aren't the focus here, but the emotional impact certainly lingers, making you reflect on the harsh realities of Annetta’s world. It’s a distinctive piece that doesn't shy away from uncomfortable truths.
