How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A quiet, painterly anime about two isolated children discovering classical music and each other in the margins of a cruel school world. It's as much about the loneliness that precedes connection as the joy of artistic awakening.
