How It Feels

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

A wry, deeply observant meditation on the indignities and yearnings of actors during an audition process, filtered through a brilliant director's increasingly peculiar vision. It's simultaneously a comedy about performance and a tender examination of what it means to want to be seen.
