How It Feels

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

A deeply unsettling meditation on family bonds and the shock of discovering that a fundamental truth about your origins may be false. Kieslowski sits with moral ambiguity and emotional damage without offering easy answers.
