How It Feels

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

A delirious, symbolism-drenched spiritual odyssey that operates on dream logic rather than narrative sense, assembling a troupe of archetypal seekers for increasingly surreal mystical ordeals. Watching it feels like being initiated into an occult ceremony where nothing means only one thing and the images linger long after the plot dissolves from memory.
