How It Feels

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

A gritty, unflinching portrait of a gangster caught between two irreconcilable worlds, where every choice brings him closer to ruin. The film trades glamour for raw brutality, examining what it costs to survive in a criminal underworld where trust is a luxury you cannot afford.
