How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A martial arts epic that grounds its spectacular action sequences in the human cost of occupation and cultural preservation. Dignified and muscular, it finds tragedy in the choices forced upon an ordinary master during wartime.
