How It Feels

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

A raw, unsparing portrait of desperation and violence along the Mexico-U.S. migration route, where a teenager's dream of escape becomes entangled with the brutal world of gang violence. The film moves with urgent momentum while refusing to look away from its characters' suffering and small, fragile moments of connection.
