How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A lush, sensual coming-of-age story where two stranded children slowly grow into young lovers amid paradise, captured with painterly beauty that romanticizes both innocence and awakening desire. The film dwells in the tension between nature's abundance and the melancholy of being cut off from the wider world.
