How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A scrappy underdog comedy about a disgraced football star using sport to unite prisoners and find dignity inside. It's warm-hearted and funny, playing the match finale as both genuine competition and jailbreak fantasy.
