How It Feels

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

A dizzying cat-and-mouse game between a man on the run and a manipulative director who may be either genius or madman, all filtered through the surreal unreality of a movie set. Romance and danger intertwine as the line between performance and reality collapses.
