How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A austere, introspective take on Arthurian legend that dwells on failure and fractured bonds rather than heroic glory, knights return from a failed quest to discover their kingdom collapsing from within. Haunting and deliberately paced, it treats medieval romance as tragedy.
