How It Feels

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

A deadpan portrait of directionless young men adrift in a decaying industrial landscape, where small moments of connection and desire puncture long stretches of nothing much happening. It moves at the speed of its characters' listlessness, finding dark humor in their desperation.
