How It Feels

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

A tender, thoughtful exploration of what it means to choose your future when you could literally rewrite the past. It's a film that holds its teenage characters' emotional lives with genuine care and finds profound melancholy in the irreversibility of growing up.
