How It Feels

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

A gleefully unhinged parade of sketch comedy, music video parodies, and deliberately terrible TV shows that celebrates the joy of making something ridiculous with heart and no budget. It's comedy as pure anarchic energy, more interested in the next wild joke than any coherent narrative.
