How It Feels

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

Three loosely connected tales of apocalypse told with deadpan absurdity, where cosmic and technological catastrophes unfold with eerie calm. The film finds dark humor and strange grace in humanity's final moments.
