If I Can't Have Love, I Want Power is a visual album directed by Colin Tilley and written by Halsey. The film features Halsey's fourth studio album of the same name and is an hour-long journey through the complex emotions of a young pregnant queen named Lila. Throughout the film, Lila grapples with the conflicting forces of love and power as she navigates her way through a dark and fantastical world.
From the opening scene, it becomes clear that the film is not for the faint of heart. We see Lila lying on a bed, her pregnant belly exposed, as she writhes with pain and screams out in agony. The camera then shifts to a dark forest where we witness Lila being initiated into a secret coven of witches. Through this initiation, Lila begins to realize her true power and eventually learns to harness it to her advantage.
As the film progresses, we see Lila struggle with her love for her child's father, who is depicted as a manipulative and oppressive figure. Her desire to break free from his hold leads her down a path of self-discovery and empowerment, culminating in a violent and thrilling finale.
Throughout the film, Halsey's music serves as a powerful soundtrack to Lila's story, with each song perfectly capturing the emotional journey of the character. The visuals are stunning, with a mix of dark and mystical imagery that will leave viewers mesmerized.
If I Can't Have Love, I Want Power is a bold and daring piece of art that showcases Halsey's talent as both a musician and a storyteller. It is a must-see for fans of the artist and anyone who appreciates a film that challenges the status quo and pushes boundaries.
