How It Feels

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

A darkly comic true-crime portrait of a restless con artist who reinvents himself through an escalating series of impersonations, exploring the razor's edge between ambition and delusion. Sharp and unsparing about the performativity of identity and the costs of refusing to stay put.
