How It Feels

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

A slasher thriller that weaponizes Amsterdam's intimate waterways into a claustrophobic hunting ground, where danger lurks beneath the surface both literally and figuratively. The film sustains mounting dread through its cat-and-mouse investigation as the killer remains disturbingly close to the detective's own family.
