How It Feels

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

A deadpan found-footage puzzle box that plays with historical revisionism and unravels the personal cost of scientific ambition. It's a smartly constructed thought experiment disguised as declassified footage.

Extremely clever! Slow first third, but then turns into a very creative story.
