How It Feels

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

A rawly earnest portrait of young addiction and recovery set in a rehab facility, where the pull of connection with another damaged person tests whether change is possible. It's intimate and unvarnished, neither glossing over how hard breaking free actually is nor denying the fragile possibility of it.
