How It Feels

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

A candy-colored romp through 1970s San Francisco where an innocent Midwesterner discovers love, belonging, and her true self among the eccentric residents of a boarding house. It's part comedy, part romance, part heartfelt exploration of found family, all buoyed by genuine warmth.
