How It Feels

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

A meticulous unraveling of how one security officer masterminded one of America's most audacious consumer frauds, told through firsthand accounts that reveal the complicity, delusion, and small-scale greed that made the scam work. It's a slow-building cat-and-mouse game where the stakes feel oddly personal despite the billions of dollars in play.
