How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A lush historical romance about a woman in 16th-century Venice who weaponizes her beauty and wit to transcend the rigid class boundaries keeping her from the man she loves. It's a story of agency within constraint, stylish and romantic but tinged with the sad knowledge of what she must sacrifice.
