How It Feels

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

A meticulously constructed indictment of marine park exploitation that traces how a magnificent creature becomes a weapon through systematic deprivation. This is investigative filmmaking that accumulates horror not through graphic detail but through the steady revelation of institutional cruelty.
