How It Feels

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

A descent into surreal social chaos where a French couple's mundane weekend escape becomes a fever dream of traffic, violence, and societal breakdown. Godard's vision is deliberately alienating and comic in its grotesque excess.
