How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A heartfelt portrait of a young teacher's struggle to connect with and uplift his forgotten students on a remote island, wrestling with systemic inequity and the limits of individual intervention. It's tender and sincere, occasionally clumsy in its idealism but grounded in the particular dignity of its community.
