How It Feels

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

A wry, unsparing portrait of a working-class family muddling through everyday life with humor and hurt in equal measure. The film finds both comedy and sorrow in the gap between parental love and adult children's struggle to find their place.
