How It Feels

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

A droll descent into the surreal as a man's innocent fascination with a painting becomes an all-consuming escape from reality. There's comedy in the specificity of his spiraling fixation, but an eerie inevitability beneath it.
