How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A surreal comedy about masculine escapism that spirals from a simple retreat into something delightfully unhinged. It's a satirical fever dream about men, marriage, and the chaos that follows when fantasy meets reality.
