If I Could Tell You

About This Movie

If I Could Tell You dives into the raw and often uncomfortable world of fertility struggles. Abby, the central character, is portrayed with a kind of desperation that feels palpable. The pacing is deliberately slow, mirroring her emotional turmoil and the weight of her choices. The film's atmosphere is tinged with a sense of isolation, particularly as Abby navigates the shadowy online realm of natural insemination. There's a gritty realism in the performances, which feels grounded, even as the subject matter edges into the taboo. It’s a striking exploration of motherhood, desperation, and the lengths one might go to attain it. You can sense the filmmakers’ intent to spark conversations, even if the direction is somewhat unsteady.
