How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A playful, theatrical take on young love and parental manipulation wrapped in musical-theatre charm. It's a fairy-tale romance that winks at its own artifice while celebrating the magic of first connection.
