How It Feels

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

A sprawling creature spectacle that balances intimate human drama against grand set-pieces of a colossal ape loose in New York. It's operatic in scale but grounded in questions about greed and humanity's hubris in disturbing the natural world.
