How It Feels

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

A darkly comic and brutally honest portrait of male ego and moral compromise in the face of fascism and concentration camp horrors. Pasqualino's desperate schemes to survive strip away any veneer of nobility, leaving only raw human desperation.
