How It Feels

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

A scrappy middle school teacher channels petty jealousy into theatrical sabotage, delivering comedy that embraces its own cringe and embrace of small-stakes chaos. It's a film that finds comedy in the messy collision of adult insecurity and school-stage theatricality.
