How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
Two writers locked in a claustrophobic antagonism that spirals into darkly comic territory, exploring how prejudice and creative ambition can poison proximity. A provocative pressure cooker about writing, race, and the impossibility of coexistence.
