How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A fever dream of transgression and desire that unfolds in theatrical intensity, Fassbinder transforms a port town into a stage for sexual awakening that is both beautiful and deeply disturbing. This is cinema as provocation, refusing comfort or easy answers.
