How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A quietly sardonic portrait of a small community fractured by post-war politics, where a gentle barkeeper's refusal to comply becomes an act of resistance. The film finds both dark comedy and genuine pathos in the gap between ordinary people trying to live and the ideologies that won't let them.
