How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A playful collision of theater, reality, and dream that blurs the lines between a production of Lysistrata and the messy lives of the three women performing it. It's a witty, formally inventive meditation on performance, marriage, and what happens when art holds up a mirror you can't look away from.
