How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A layered exploration of how stories shift when told, retold, and performed, the film meditates on the gap between lived experience and how we represent it to others. Watching ordinary women's lives filtered through actresses' interpretations creates an oddly moving meditation on authenticity and artifice.
