How It Feels

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

A quietly determined thriller about a man forging his way into an impossible dream, shot through with the ache of never quite belonging. It's a film that believes in the human spirit while asking whether society ever will.
