How It Feels

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

A deceptively quiet exploration of how a single philosophical question can unravel the bonds between friends during one of history's darkest periods. The film gradually tightens its grip, turning a theoretical debate into a haunting examination of complicity and consequence.
