How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A deadpan Danish comedy that finds grotesque humor in the mundane collision of butcher-shop ambition and moral transgression. It's the kind of film that makes you laugh at the unspeakable while feeling slightly queasy about it.
