Review of What We Wanted

9/10
Thank you for telling this story
8 June 2023
Yes, there are not a lot of obvious things that are happening in this movie. But a lot of layers of pain are displayed that deserve to be told. This is the story of so many couples out there. This is my story and I am thankful that someone considers it important enough to make a movie of a topic that is still a taboo in our society

The pain is displayed so subtle, that maybe not everyone might get all of it. The children they see everywhere around them and it's tearing out your heart. Not being able to have a normal sex live because everything is just about conceiving. The comments from strangers who ,mean it well'. The having to let go of how you imagined your life to be and almost everyone can have but just not you. The house you built for your family but you will just always be a couple.

If you did not get the movie, maybe you are simply not able to put yourself in someone else's shoes.
