How It Feels

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

Two drifting, hurting people spend a night together creating fantasies of connection they can't find in real life, finding unexpected tenderness in shared loneliness. It's tender and funny and sad all at once, a low-key portrait of how we perform intimacy before we can truly feel it.
