How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A three-hour fever dream that follows an earnest young man through an increasingly surreal gauntlet of humiliation and moral compromise. It's a gleefully provocative, structurally audacious attack on ambition itself.
