How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A spirited cross-cultural comedy where American military efficiency collides with Okinawan village tradition and wisdom, resulting in gentle satire about whose values really matter. The film finds humor and heart in the gap between intentions and outcomes.
