How It Feels

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

A meticulous, unflinching examination of institutional rot that watches good intentions calcify into ruthless self-preservation. The city itself becomes a character in a tragedy where everyone, from cops to dealers to civilians, is trapped in a system designed to consume them.
