How It Feels

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

A careful, observant look at how family members mask themselves from one another and themselves. The slow unpacking of secrets across a three-hour canvas creates a sense of accumulated emotional weight rather than dramatic revelation.
