How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A novelist observing a tragedy in a courtroom finds her own carefully constructed sense of self unraveling as the accused woman's story emerges. It's a slow, psychologically precise excavation of maternal ambivalence and the stories we tell ourselves about responsibility.
