How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A fiercely energetic courtroom drama that channels the righteous fury of the 1960s counterculture into sharp legal sparring. Watching it feels like witnessing a battle for truth and accountability unfold through speeches, objections, and moments of irrepressible dissent.
