How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
An ambitious three-character tapestry weaving together the diverging fates of young men on opposite sides of World War II, moving with the scope and gravity of a literary epic. A long, absorbing meditation on how war shapes identity and tests the bonds between people.
