How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A stylized martial arts spectacle that blends gorgeous swordplay with an unexpectedly contemplative meditation on duty, loneliness, and the cost of being forged into a weapon. It's operatic and intimate at once.
