How It Feels

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

A meditative fable about rejecting conformity and pursuing mastery for its own sake, told through the unlikely vehicle of a seagull's spiritual awakening. Earnest and unhurried, it moves between graceful flight sequences and philosophical introspection.
