How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A dignified, inward portrait of a historical figure confronting the collapse of his world and the mythologies that sustained it. The film treats its subject with psychological depth rather than hagiography or condemnation.
