How It Feels

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

A kaleidoscopic musical fever dream where Beatles songs become the emotional language of 1960s upheaval, romance, and social collapse. Visually intoxicating but increasingly claustrophobic as personal love and political chaos collide.
