How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A wounded, mercurial man and an earnest young student form an unlikely bond over a transformative weekend that becomes both a reckoning and a reprieve. It's sentimental without being saccharine, a film about how connection can pull someone back from the edge.
