The new film "If I Had Legs I'd Kick You" brings a comedic nightmare to the big screen, directed by Mary Bronstein and starring Rose Byrne.
Before the film's screening at the Toronto International Film Festival, Rose Byrne addressed the audience, explaining that to fully experience the film, one must imagine their worst day or the worst thing that happened to them that day.
Hold that feeling, she said, and let it carry through the acerbic, tense and hilarious experience that will follow.
The film follows Linda, a mental health counsellor played by Byrne, whose life is falling apart. The movie opens with an uncomfortable close-up of her face as a doctor scolds her for not doing enough to help her daughter recover from a mysterious illness.
From there, the film descends into chaos, with each scene presenting a new challenge for Linda to face.
