How It Feels

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

A sweeping, reverential journey through jazz's evolution as the soundtrack to American contradiction: a music born from struggle that became a beacon of freedom, innovation, and human connection. This is archival storytelling at its most lyrical, letting the musicians and their moment speak for themselves.
