How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A deeply felt story of separation, hardship, and the stubborn persistence of hope across war and distance. It moves between the brutality of imprisonment and the quiet, aching romance of two people trying to find each other again.
