How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A quietly devastating meditation on loneliness and the desperate need for understanding in a world that punishes difference. The film moves with the slow, suffocating pace of boarding school life, finding depth and heartbreak in small moments of connection.
