How It Feels

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

A meditative portrait of a woman reckoning with the oppressive intimacy of her childhood servitude as she returns to the palace that shaped her. Dreamlike and emotionally dense, it unfolds through memory and atmosphere rather than plot.
