How It Feels

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

A hallucinatory odyssey where a couple's quest for a mythical city becomes a fever dream of tenderness and dislocation. Fando and Lis is genuinely strange, a film that moves by its own surreal logic, more interested in mood and image than coherent narrative.
