How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A quietly intense courtroom and character study that probes the collision between law, conscience, and religious conviction. The film tracks a judge wrestling with both a profound legal dilemma and her own unraveling life, finding that principled decisions rarely resolve cleanly.
