How It Feels

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

A darkly funny documentary portrait of two artists locked in a turbulent creative partnership, told with warmth and bewilderment by the man who lived through it. Herzog recalls decades of mutual antagonism and strange tenderness with someone he was somehow unable to stop working with.
