Look Both Ways

About This Movie

Look Both Ways is a fascinating exploration of choices and their consequences, beautifully brought to life by Wanuri Kahiu. The film plays with the concept of parallel lives, following Natalie on graduation night, where her decision to take a pregnancy test sends her down two very distinct paths. There's a lightheartedness in the early moments that contrasts sharply with the deeper emotional beats that unfold. The performances are genuine, especially from the lead, who embodies both versions of Natalie with a subtlety that feels real. The pacing ebbs and flows, mirroring the uncertainty of life's twists and turns. It’s this blend of comedy and drama, paired with an inventive narrative structure, that sets it apart from typical romantic fare. Atmospherically rich, it captures the essence of young adulthood beautifully.
