How It Feels

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

A playfully meta documentary-comedy about a filmmaker's casting call that becomes a mirror of desire, ambition, and the gap between dreams and reality. It's a bittersweet portrait of ordinary people auditioning for a chance at cinema.
