How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A visceral portrait of idealism corroded by the machinery of revolution, where political necessity fractures the bonds between brothers. The film captures the brutal intimacy of guerrilla warfare and the moral vertigo of liberation turned inward.
