How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A high-spirited adventure romp where a romance novelist discovers she's braver and more resourceful than her own fictional heroines, while trading witty banter with a charming rogue in the Colombian jungle. It's pure escapism with heart: equal parts thrilling treasure hunt and swoon-worthy meet-cute.
