How It Feels

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

A mordant, sprawling satire that follows a corporate drone conducting absurdist interviews across Bucharest, using workplace tragedy as grotesque fodder for corporate messaging. The film's bloated runtime becomes part of the joke, a grinding endurance test that mirrors the deadening of consciousness under late capitalism.
