started really interesting and the story was interesting but it took such a dull turn, it looks visually weird, its characters became less interesting the longer it went on and just pacing that bores me

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A metaphysical romance about a man given a second chance at youth, forced to reckon with how much of himself has been lost to time. The film moves between states of wonder and unease as it explores what it means to love across the wreckage of a life already lived.
