How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A gloriously convoluted caper that spirals into beautiful chaos as a desperate con man recruits an unwitting actor to impersonate a hitman for actual yakuza. It's a comedy of escalating deception where reality and performance become deliciously indistinguishable.
