How It Feels

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

A ravaged woman channels her unbearable loss into radical compassion for the destitute, only to find that the world, and her family, cannot abide her transformation. A neorealist meditation on guilt, penance, and whether salvation requires us to abandon everything we were.
