How It Feels

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

A sweeping conclusion to Tolstoy's epic that moves from catastrophe to spiritual reckoning as war strips characters down to their humanity. The burning of Moscow and Pierre's harrowing captivity form the crucible through which meaning emerges.
