How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A portrait of extraordinary resilience and reinvention, following one woman's journey from oppression to global voice through grit and transformation. The film moves between intimate reflection and sweeping ambition, grounded in the reality of what it costs to escape and rebuild yourself.
