How It Feels

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

A haunting meditation on mass atrocity told through handmade clay figures and archival remnants, creating an intimate and unsettling distance from horror. Panh transforms the unbearable into something that demands witness, a film about what it means to remember when direct images don't exist.
