How It Feels

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

A lyrical fable about a restless child dancer caught between the traditions of his rural home and the distant promise of the city. The film moves at its own unhurried pace, infused with the rhythms of folk dance and childhood yearning.
