How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A charming Irish village schemes to claim a lottery jackpot through increasingly elaborate deception, balancing humor with a surprisingly tender meditation on community and mortality. It's a caper that feels as much about belonging as about the money.
