How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A meticulously crafted true-story thriller that balances intimate family stakes against the crushing weight of Cold War division. The film finds drama in the grueling, unglamorous work of excavation and the psychological toll of daring to defy an iron curtain.
