How It Feels

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

A meditative exploration of performance and transformation, where an actress preparing to embody the French singer Barbara becomes entangled in both technical mastery and the emotional weight of inhabiting another person. The film mirrors this absorption in its own form, creating a quiet but absorbing portrait of artistic devotion.
