How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A taut political thriller about one Swedish bureaucrat's quiet resistance against his nation's complicit neutrality during WWII. It's a story of moral courage exercised through paperwork and persuasion rather than heroic action.
