How It Feels

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

A patient, haunting inquiry into loss and bureaucratic absurdity where a grieving father must navigate institutional indifference to reckon with an old wound. The search becomes less about answers and more about what we're willing to face about the dead.
