How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A propulsive mercenary thriller that treats its violence with documentary-like grimness rather than spectacle. It's a cynical look at how geopolitical interests reduce human lives to strategic assets.
