How It Feels

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

A stylized vision of a dystopian future where a visceral, choreographed sport is weaponized by corporate control. The film finds drama not in violence for its own sake, but in the protagonist's determined resistance against a system designed to crush individual will.
