How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A slow-burn examination of a man losing himself in a double life, torn between the intimate brotherhood of his mob family and the hollow obedience of his real one. It's a character study wrapped in crime-thriller mechanics, less about the job than about the cost of becoming two people at once.
