How It Feels

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

A spare, austere portrait of a man caught between warring ideologies and unable to escape the forces that shaped him. This is a film about complicity and the difficulty of finding oneself when others have already decided who you must be.
