How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A wildly irreverent fever dream of a political satire that treats 19th-century Canadian politics like a lurid melodrama. It's a gleefully uncomfortable collision of history, sexuality, and delusion filtered through surrealist comedy.
