How It Feels

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

A austere, fragmentary portrait of the Russian Civil War that treats combat and occupation as a relentless cycle of control, chaos, and moral collapse. Miklos Jancso strips away heroism to show war as a brutalizing repetition of dominance and suffering.
