How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A quietly moving portrait of a sick man's return to family and the countryside, where past regrets and fragile new connections unfold against the backdrop of nature and mortality. The film observes its characters with patience, letting emotion accumulate through gesture and landscape rather than declaration.
