How It Feels

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

A candy-colored sci-fi adventure that hooks you with the fantasy of a video game wunderkind suddenly called to save a galaxy. It's earnest, visually wild, and deeply embedded in 1980s optimism about technology and destiny.
