How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A lush, deliberate epic that uses a tragic love affair to explore the collision between personal desire and political obligation in occupied Ireland. The film moves slowly through its tale of passion and consequences, asking whether intimacy can exist across the lines drawn by war.
