How It Feels

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

A gorgeously shot fever dream of counterculture desire colliding with institutional violence, where two damaged people find brief transcendence in the desert before reality catches up. Michelangelo Antonioni's only American film is visually sumptuous but emotionally restless, suffused with '70s paranoia and the Pink Floyd soundtrack that bleeds through your bones.
