How It Feels

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

A rigorous, demanding collage of cinema that interrogates how the Holocaust has been visualized and ritualized on screen, confronting viewers with the gap between depiction and historical reality. Watching this is to reckon with cinema's complicity in translating atrocity into narrative form.
