How It Feels

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

A taut 1960s drama about the impossible position of a Black nanny caught between protecting vulnerable children and the paranoia and racism of the era that threatens to destroy her. Watching this film is an exercise in growing dread as structural injustice tightens around one woman's moral conviction.
