How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A morally compromised politician trying to clean up a ecological disaster finds himself drowning in the very corruption he sought to fix. It's a caustic portrait of idealism curdling into hypocrisy in a city grinding under environmental and political ruin.
