How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A leisurely, sensual immersion in the rhythms of an upper-class Japanese family as seasons and years slip past. The film savors small moments and domestic rituals as delicately as it watches cherry blossoms fall.
