How It Feels

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

A gritty 1970s crime drama about the moral compromises of law enforcement, where a cop must navigate between institutional corruption and his colleagues' descent into vigilantism. It's a cynical examination of how the system breaks the people meant to uphold it.
