How It Feels

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

A darkly comic exploration of mortality and friendship, where aging residents grapple with dignity and choice through an ethically fraught act of care. It's tender and absurd in equal measure, treating a weighty subject with both humor and genuine emotional weight.
