How It Feels

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

An elderly Russian woman travels to the front lines of the Chechen conflict to see her grandson, and the film quietly observes the collision between civilian tenderness and military brutality. It's a meditative, unsettling portrait of love persisting in a place defined by violence.
