How It Feels

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

A gripping and unflinching examination of grooming and psychological manipulation that refuses to romanticize its central relationship. The series tracks the escalating damage of abuse with an unsparing eye on how power dynamics corrupt what appears to be consensual intimacy.
