How It Feels

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

A suffocating descent into generational pain and recrimination, trapped in a single day as a family's accumulated resentments and addictions surface through savage honesty. This is Eugene O'Neill's chamber drama made flesh, relentless, emotionally exhausting, and devastating.
