How It Feels

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

A austere portrait of a family locked in a daily battle against an unforgiving landscape, where every moment of labor is rendered in patient, almost ritualistic detail. The film strips cinema down to its essence, observation, repetition, endurance, leaving the viewer to contemplate what perseverance actually costs.
