How It Feels

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

A gritty Hong Kong noir where loyalty and duty collide as a cop finds himself caught between his criminal best friend and the law. Morally murky and propulsive, it's a taut exploration of how friendship fractures under pressure.
