How It Feels

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

A fish-out-of-water comedy that uses the absurdist premise of a real samurai displaced in modern filmmaking to explore what it means to hold onto authenticity in a world of performance and spectacle. It's funny, strange, and carries an underlying melancholy about loss and belonging.
