How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A grueling odyssey of four broken men hauling unstable dynamite through hostile jungle, where every mile is a negotiation with death and the landscape itself seems designed to break them. Less a heist and more a descent into purgatory.
