How It Feels

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

A blunt, kinetic chronicle of a man's descent from football hooligan to gang member, driven by raw ambition and violent pride. It's a grim portrait of toxic masculinity and the criminal underworld that feels brutally matter-of-fact.
