Delphine is the author of an autobiographical novel that has become a bestseller. Exhausted by the promotional tour, just when she feels out of place, paralyzed by the idea of having to start writing again, she meets Elle, a young, attractive, intelligent, intuitive woman who seems to understand her better than anyone.
How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A Parisian writer at a creative crossroads finds unexpected intimacy with a charismatic stranger, only to discover the relationship may not be what it seems. This is a slow-burn psychological thriller that trades jump scares for mounting unease and the creeping dread of misplaced trust.
