How It Feels

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

A silent comedy-drama that follows childhood mischief with warmth before quietly shifting into something more sobering, a gentle yet penetrating look at how early hierarchy and social shame reshape children's understanding of the world around them.
