How It Feels

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

A richly drawn study of a young man caught between his mother's suffocating devotion, his artistic ambitions, and an illicit love affair. The film moves with the weight of small-town constraints and family obligation, wrestling with desire against duty in an Edwardian mining community.
