How It Feels

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

A gracefully structured meditation on the arc of a marriage, told backwards from its dissolution to its genesis. By watching the relationship dissolve in reverse, the film transforms inevitable heartbreak into a poignant reflection on how passion becomes routine, and intimacy curdles into absence.
