How It Feels

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

A visually stunning animated journey through a magical underworld that balances wonder and sorrow, ultimately about learning to live with loss rather than escaping it. The film moves with poetic deliberation, unafraid of quiet moments of reflection alongside moments of genuine peril and beauty.
