Evelyn has devoted herself to helping people in hard times, and she struggles to connect with her son Ziggy, an aspiring internet star oblivious to the problems of the world.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A sharply observant comedy about the mutual blindness between a narcissistic mother and her oblivious son, each seeking connection elsewhere while missing what's right in front of them. It's tender and funny in equal measure, capturing the small humiliations of wanting to be understood.
