How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A seductive quest narrative that captures the intoxicating allure of escape and perfect worlds, only to gradually reveal the darkness lurking beneath utopian dreams. It's visually gorgeous but increasingly claustrophobic as idealism curdles into something far more sinister.
