How It Feels

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

A darkly comedic international thriller that treats geopolitical catastrophe as a cynical farce, using spy-movie momentum to skewer how media, government, and weapons deals intersect. The film balances genuine scares with pitch-black humor, making nuclear brinkmanship feel simultaneously ridiculous and chilling.
