How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A taut desert commando raid where a mixed unit of British soldiers and German Jewish refugees must cross 800 miles of hostile terrain to strike a critical blow against Rommel's forces. It's a propulsive, high-stakes WWII adventure that balances military strategy with the personal stakes of soldiers fighting on the margins of the war.
