How It Feels

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

A caustic, deliberately uncomfortable excavation of privilege and hypocrisy wrapped in the mechanics of a museum scandal. Ruben Östlund crafts something that feels less like a narrative and more like a social autopsy, finding dark comedy in the collision between artistic pretension and human fragility.
