How It Feels

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

A deadpan mockumentary that finds strange intimacy and dark humor in the everyday routine of a Melbourne hitman and his film-student friend documenting him. It's a character study that treats violence as mundane while building an oddly touching portrait of connection across moral boundaries.
