How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A meditative portrait of intellectual certainty cracking under the weight of human experience. Zanussi traces how a brilliant young rationalist discovers that logic alone cannot explain, or survive, the chaos of grief and desire.
