How It Feels

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

A darkly atmospheric adaptation of Dickens' Victorian tale that captures the grime and cruelty of 19th-century London with unflinching compassion. It's a film that holds both the harshness of orphaned childhood and the possibility of kindness in the same frame.
