Look Both Ways Director Wanuri Kahiu is Passionate About the Project
Wanuri Kahiu is helming Look Both Ways, her first American feature film. Previously, the director has worked on several projects, the most well-known being Rafiki. The movie was selected to appear at the Cannes Film Festival, receiving nominations and winning awards at the Dublin International Film Festival and Chicago International Film Festival. Kahui is passionate about Look Both Ways, which she expressed in an interview with the Golden Globes.
"It is an incredible story about women's resilience. On the one hand, it is a story about a young mother. A young single mother, who is trying to figure out how her life works and how she pursues her passion. On the other hand, it is a story about a young artist doing everything that she can to get a break in the industry that is so hard to get into as a young woman. On both sides, it is about a woman striving for excellence and that is what drew me to it. Either through motherhood or artistry, it is about women striving for excellence. That is the most important thing and that is the big takeaway and why I wanted to be part of the project."
April Prosser wrote the script for the film, with Jessica Malanaphy, Eric Newman, and Bryan Unkeless producing. Lili Reinhart and Alyssa Rodrigues are executive producers for Look Both Ways. The cast includes Andrea Savage (I'm Sorry), Luke Wilson (The Royal Tenenbaums), Nia Long (Big Momma's House), David Corenswet (We Own This City), Danny Ramirez (Assassination Nation), Aisha Dee (The Bold Type), Taylor Murphy (Everybody Wants Some!!), and Sahara Ale (Run Hide Fight).
