How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A deliberately paced, unflinching examination of a senseless killing and the machinery of capital punishment, structured to force you to confront the humanity in both killer and victim. The film watches violence without flinching, then questions what happens when the state responds with its own.
