How It Feels

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

A tender epistolary romance played out entirely through letters and phone calls across the Atlantic, where two people who never meet fall deeply in love through their shared passion for books. It's a quiet, achingly human film about connection forged in the space between words.
