How It Feels

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

A breezy Parisian sketch about romantic indecision, where a young man's casual flirtations collide when he must finally choose between two women. It's light and observant, watching desire and obligation tangle with a gentle, almost comic inevitability.
