How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A sharp-edged romance with motherhood, watching an ambitious woman forced to completely reinvent her life when a baby upends her carefully constructed Manhattan existence. It's equal parts comedy about chaos and heart about discovering what actually matters.
