How It Feels

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

A dreamy meditation on the fantasy of escape and the danger of mistaking idealization for connection. The film drifts between Gary's mundane reality and the intoxicating dream-world he's constructing, asking whether what we desire in our heads bears any resemblance to what we actually need.
