How It Feels

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

An oddly tender portrait of two sharp-witted women living in genteel decay, holding court among the wreckage of their lost social lives. You'll find yourself laughing at their eccentricity and aching at the co-dependent love binding them together.
