How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A quietly aching portrait of adolescent longing and the painful complexity of first love when desire doesn't align with requital. The film moves with the slow, inevitable drift of a school year, watching a young man navigate the impossible terrain between his feelings and his friendships.
