How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A Filipino man chases his Western dreams to Paris, only to discover a painful gap between fantasy and reality. It's a quietly devastating portrait of migration and the cost of romanticizing elsewhere.
