How It Feels

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

A quiet, character-driven exploration of broken people finding unexpected solace in each other, wrapped in the trappings of a noir thriller. It's less about plot mechanics and more about the small, redemptive moments that emerge when damaged lives intersect.
