How It Feels

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

A raw, unflinching portrait of urban survival and transgressive sexuality that immerses you in the daily degradations of sex work and drug dependency. This is cinema of extreme candor, indifferent to judgment, unsparing in detail.
