How It Feels

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

A meticulously constructed investigation into one man's transformation from ruthless oligarch to political prisoner to dissident, laying bare the machinery of Putin's control. The film moves between decades and documents with the precision of a prosecutor building an irrefutable case.
