How It Feels

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

A darkly comic cat-and-mouse game between a suicidal man and a aging hitman who's supposed to kill him, which unexpectedly becomes a story about finding reasons to stay alive. The film balances pitch-black humor with genuine emotional stakes as the relationship between them deepens.
