How It Feels

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

A wickedly funny black-and-white farce about bumbling Soviet despots trampling each other for power after Stalin's death, treated with the zinging precision of a political satire and the visual formality of a prestige historical drama.
