How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A meticulously plotted WWII heist built on cat-and-mouse tension between German commandos and British forces. It's a calculated, intelligent thriller that privileges strategy and craft over spectacle.
