How It Feels

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

A shipwrecked European navigator navigates political intrigue and cultural collision in 16th-century Japan, caught between two worlds and learning to survive by understanding a civilization fundamentally unlike his own. Epic in scale and contemplative about belonging and transformation.
