How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A scraggily charming film about fractured family bonds that finds unexpected grace in small gestures and shared meals. It balances real tenderness with gently absurd humor as estranged relatives converge on a chaotic Thanksgiving.
