An actress will play Barbara, the French singer. The shoot will soon start. The actress works on her character, her voice, the songs, scores, the gestures, knitting, scenes she has to learn, things are going okay, there's progress, development, she is even overwhelmed. The film director also works, through his encounters, through archives, music, he let's himself be submerged, overwhelmed like the actress, by the actress.

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.
