How It Feels

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

A war correspondent finds her footing, and herself, in the chaos of Afghanistan, balancing survival instinct with the intoxicating rush of meaningful work. It's both a critique of conflict tourism and a genuine coming-of-age story about learning who you are when everything around you is falling apart.
