How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A deceptively simple act of pool-hopping becomes a haunting unraveling of memory, ego, and suburban illusion. The film treats an ordinary summer day as profound inquiry into what we lose when we refuse to see ourselves clearly.
