If I Had Legs I'd Kick You

Academy Award nominee: Best Actress in a Leading Role!

From Mary Bronstein comes IF I HAD LEGS I’D KICK YOU, a psychological black-comedy starring Australian Rose Byrne in a role that won her the Silver Bear for Best Leading Performance at the 75th Berlinale.

Looking after her ill daughter while her husband is away for business, Linda (Byrne) is a therapist that’s struggling to hold it all together. When her bedroom ceiling collapses and she’s forced to move into a hotel while caring for her child, the thread that’s holding everything together becomes increasingly smaller. As she looks for help from her own therapist (Conan O-Brien) and a receptionist at her hotel (A$AP Rocky), Linda does her best to keep her nerve-shredding life from unravelling.

Chaotic, surreal, and anxiety-inducing, IF I HAD LEGS I’D KICK YOU is a feat of filmmaking, and a nightmarishly honest representation of motherhood.
