How It Feels

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

A philosophy teacher's descent into moral compromise unfolds with wry absurdity as he weaponizes psychology and deception in a corrupt world, using logic as a tool for manipulation until he becomes the very thing he opposed.
