How It Feels

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

A provocative 3.5-hour essay film that weaves together the life of a radical anarchist with a contemporary investigation of his legacy, using fragmented narrative and formal ruptures to collapse past and present into a single meditation on desire, ideology, and the possibility of revolution.
