How It Feels

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

A slick 80s techno-thriller that mines paranoia from the intersection of beauty, surveillance, and corporate evil. Roberts stumbles into a deadly conspiracy that makes his profession, perfecting the human form, seem like a trojan horse for something far more sinister.
