How It Feels

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

A visceral descent into psychological deterioration as a man's sense of self fractures under decades of extreme isolation, culminating in his transformation into a celebrity persona born from violence. Formally inventive and deeply uncomfortable, it's an unflinching portrait of a mind hollowed and rebuilt by confinement.
