Look Both Ways trailer has been released, and we are curious to get to know the movie in deep. It is seen that Lili Reinhart will be the lead character. The film takes a rather creative turn with its plot with a story that we have never seen before. Wanuri Kahiu is directing the project. She has won several awards for her movies that have even premiered at the Cannes Film Festival and other ones in Dubai. The story of Look Both Ways focuses on the possibilities of our decisions. Yes, we make decisions on a regular basis.
From eating that extra plate of fries or not or whether or not we should get in a relationship or not. Each decision has the power to impact our lives, big or small. As per the description provided by Wanuri, she wanted to explore how women will strive in any condition and reach for the top. She shows us both sides of the coin, split by a single choice.
With the trailer of the film released, let us discuss that more. Lili Reinhart will be the center, and we will see her as a young woman with goals. Her life is divided into two parts when she hooks up with a guy. In one scenario, she will not get pregnant and pursue her dreams in the art industry. On the other hand, she will get pregnant and try to achieve her goal while also handling motherhood. In both ways, we will see her striving for excellence. There will be two different partners in both scenarios, and it is not sure if these two cases will merge at one point in the end or not.
