How It Feels

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

A neo-noir character study where a aging criminal falls into an obsessive, dangerous infatuation that unravels the last vestiges of his sense of self. The film is less about plot momentum than the slow deterioration of a man watching the world move past him.
