How It Feels

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

A spiraling farce about a father trying to hide who he is for his son's approval, that finds genuine warmth beneath its slapstick chaos. The comedy comes from loving these characters, not at their expense.
