How It Feels

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

A spare, observational drift through the hallways and rooms of a working-class New York hotel, rendered in silence and long takes that transform everyday spaces into something quietly haunting. It's less a conventional documentary than a meditation on solitude and urban margins.
