How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A cheerful evening in a small Czechoslovak town spirals into gentle chaos as well-intentioned plans unravel through petty human folly and systemic dysfunction. It's a warmly observed comedy that finds the absurdity in how people muddle through together.
