How It Feels

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

A visceral dive into the world of Edo-period high-class sex work, where beauty and danger intertwine as one woman fights against the brutal systems binding her. Dazzling and darkly romantic, it's a film that swings between passion and claustrophobia.
