How It Feels

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

A relentless portrait of a man watching his life collapse under the weight of poverty, family responsibility, and terminal illness, with no soft edges or easy answers. Biutiful is as unsparing as cinema gets, finding small moments of grace in the midst of profound suffering.
