How It Feels

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

A sharp-eyed observation of how people from different worlds collide and reveal themselves through small moments and silences. There's genuine warmth between Madeleine and Ashley, but also an undertow of disappointment and unspoken resentments that surfaces quietly throughout.
