How It Feels

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

A sweeping ensemble drama set aboard a 1930s ocean liner where disparate passengers navigate romance, desire, and social pretense while the world lurches toward upheaval. The film is a richly observed study of human connection and disconnection unfolding across an enclosed, transient space.
