How It Feels

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

A collision between cosmopolitan sophistication and rural poverty that unearths generational trauma and hidden damage. The film watches with the uncomfortable intimacy of watching a family's darkest moments unfold in the swamp heat.
