How It Feels

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

A lyrical visual essay assembled from thousands of photographs, capturing everyday Cuban life in the revolutionary moment through Varda's distinctive eye. It's a meditative portrait of a society in transformation, structured as image and impression rather than argument.
