How It Feels

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

A haunting meditation on time's cruelty and the body's betrayal, where an old tailor's rejection of his reflection spirals into something grotesque and visceral. It's a brief, disturbing poem on beauty, loss, and the price of refusing to age.
