How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A picaresque odyssey through the margins of the American Dream that finds dark comedy in desperation. Stroszek moves like a ballad, episodic and fatalistic, finding strange beauty in the lives of society's misfits as they chase a promise that America may not keep.
