How It Feels

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

A methodical neo-noir about disillusionment and institutional rot, where a small-town sheriff discovers the heroes he's idolized are criminals. It's a slow-burn examination of loyalty torn apart by truth.
