How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A darkly comedic exploitation film that treats its inappropriate premise with a light touch, balancing teenage fantasy with increasingly tangled criminal scheming. It's a time-capsule piece that's both cynical and oddly tender about adolescent longing.
