How It Feels

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

A tender, unsettling portrait of adolescent self-invention and the desperate hunger for connection, set against the backdrop of a rural summer and the dawning internet age. Watching Sid navigate desire and identity feels like witnessing something raw and painfully honest about growing up.
