I Need, I Want is a classic story by director Bill Liggins about a young unmarried couple and their friends working for their big break acting or singing in the entertainment industry. The American feature film begins in an acting class where students learn the differences between I need and I want. Their active lives evolve around their regular work schedules, auditions, acting lessons, and friends. The challenges and obstacles of the young talent are also put to the test as the aspiring actors question their dreams and abilities. 

When Kayla gets selected to be a new member of a women’s singing group, the expectations of the young couple are impacted. How does her partner handle her success? How will he handle her time away on the road?

I Need, I Want is about chasing dreams, making adjustments, and adapting to changing situations.

I Need; I Want is directed by Bill Liggins
