How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A warm, gently comedic scrapbook of memory itself, where a man recalls how radio shaped his childhood imagination in Depression-era New York. It's less a story than a feeling, snippets of wonder and minor tragedies stitched together by the hum of static.
