How It Feels

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

A meandering picaresque adventure that mines both comedy and pathos from a deluded dreamer's collision with reality. It's a meditation on the power of imagination wrapped in slapstick and road-movie charm.
