How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A lyrical, visually stunning meditation on an African-American family at the threshold of irreversible change, where every moment of connection and conflict carries the weight of cultural heritage about to be left behind. The film moves through time and emotion rather than plot, letting you inhabit a world of ritual, resentment, and love in the face of displacement.
