How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A sweeping, emotionally exhausting pursuit across decades of French history, where one man's search for absolution and another's rigid belief in law collide across revolution and tragedy. The film sprawls ambitiously but feels intimate in its meditation on what we owe each other.
