How It Feels

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

A quietly disturbing portrait of a secret group of people who impersonate the dead for grieving relatives, exploring the strange comfort and ethical horror of replacement and role-playing in the face of loss. The film moves with purposeful restraint, letting absurdity and sadness coexist in the space between performance and reality.
