How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A scathing, unflinching account of moral collapse in occupied Italy, where the aftermath of war proves as destructive as the conflict itself. The film watches the desperation and degradation of a society in freefall with a coldly observant eye.
