How It Feels

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

A taut courtroom drama that grapples with racial violence and moral complexity through the prism of a father's rage and a lawyer's conviction. It's a film about whether the law can deliver justice when the system itself is corrupted by prejudice.
