How It Feels

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

A time-travel fantasy that tenderly explores the gap between who we are and who our parents hoped we'd be, using magical regression as a means of understanding and reconciliation. It's warm-hearted without being saccharine, balancing comedy with genuine emotional depth about regret and second chances.
