How It Feels

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

A darkly comedic road movie where a doomed informant and his two executioners collide in a series of escalating mishaps and violence. It's a cat-and-mouse game that finds black humor in the gap between professional expectations and chaotic reality.
