How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
Two fundamentally incompatible men navigate the messy reality of shared living, finding unexpected warmth in their clashing ways. It's a comedy that mines genuine laughs from personality collision while quietly exploring how we accommodate, and sometimes resent, the people we care about.
