How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A delightfully surreal wartime fable where mistaken identity spirals into a poetic meditation on sanity and madness. The film is playful and dreamlike, even as it quietly interrogates the absurdity of war itself.
