How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A life-affirming dramedy that doesn't shy away from the fear and absurdity of a cancer diagnosis, but finds humor and grace in the relationships that sustain us through it. It's simultaneously funny and devastating, anchored by genuine warmth between friends.
