How It Feels

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

A chilling reconstruction of a family tragedy told through bodycam footage, social media, and home video that makes the horror feel unnervingly present and intimate. The ordinary veneer of suburban life collapses into something deeply disturbing.
