How It Feels

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

A stylish action thriller that remixes Romeo and Juliet for the hip-hop era, mixing kinetic martial arts choreography with street-level intrigue across Oakland's gang territories. It's propulsive, visually inventive entertainment built on the chemistry between its leads and the spectacle of bodies in motion.
