How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A beautifully melancholic origin story that traces how a remorseless killer finds humanity through love, only to discover that some bonds are forged in tragedy. The film balances sweeping samurai action with intimate, bittersweet romance set against Japan's violent civil war.
