How It Feels

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

A blackly comic demolition of Cold War paranoia and military bureaucracy that remains audaciously bleak, watching it unfold is like witnessing humanity's last hours narrated by people too absurd to notice the apocalypse.
