How It Feels

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

A haunting chronicle of two young men on opposite sides of the trenches, following their parallel journeys from idealistic youth through the grinding horror of the Great War. It's a meditation on loss, camaraderie, and the human cost of historical forces beyond individual control.
