How It Feels

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

A mind-bending dark comedy that deconstructs causality by unspooling a murder backwards, where ending becomes beginning and death invites philosophical reinterpretation. Experimental and disorienting, it challenges what we think we're watching even as we watch it.
