How It Feels

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

A sprawling, introspective portrait of a man watching his life unfold across decades, shaped by his entanglement with powerful men and the moral compromises that follow. The film moves backward through time like a slow reckoning, less interested in crime-thriller excitement than in what it costs a person to live this way.
