How It Feels

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

A warm-hearted comedy about two gay men whose dream adoption goes hilariously and heartbreakingly sideways when a surly, prejudiced teenager arrives instead of the toddler they expected. It's funny in its absurdity but genuine in its exploration of what family actually means.
