How It Feels

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

A wartime hybrid of animated sequences and strategic military lecture, where cartoons make the case for air superiority with patriotic fervor. It's propaganda with genuine visual charm, part educational documentary, part rousing wartime plea.
