How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A provocative examination of well-intentioned intervention and systemic inequality that grows increasingly uncomfortable as noble intentions collide with entrenched economic and social reality. Watching it means confronting how easily ideology can be undone by the machinery of exploitation.
