How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A relentlessly anarchic deconstruction of broadcast news, pummeling the pretensions and idiocies of television journalism with surreal sketches and merciless satire. It moves at a breakneck pace and assumes you'll keep up.
