How It Feels

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

A witty, philosophically rich film about actors embodying a reinterpreted Passion Play who find the line between performance and reality becoming dangerously blurred. It's a meditation on faith, art, and meaning wrapped in dark comedy and genuine spiritual provocation.
