How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A darkly comic exploration of what happens when a man's face, and thus his identity, is literally replaced, following his surreal journey through media attention, existential disorientation, and the question of whether he's still himself. The film balances wry humor with genuine unease as it excavates what it means to lose your face and gain notoriety.
