How It Feels

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

A deadpan portrait of everyday anomie and disconnection, where nothing much happens but everything feels oddly significant. The film moves at its own deliberate pace, finding strange beauty in the mundane and melancholy.
