How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A gently heartwarming story of a priest and nun working to save a struggling school, carried by the chemistry between its leads and a spirit of good-natured compromise. It's the kind of film that believes in the power of kindness and collaboration without a trace of cynicism.
