How It Feels

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

A Soviet-era creature feature told with fairy-tale tenderness, where the real heart lies not in monster-hunting thrills but in the longing of a young man caught between two worlds. It's a poignant romance wrapped in an adventure shell.
