How It Feels

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

A propulsive thriller that follows the intersecting paths of intelligence officers and vulnerable young women drawn into extremism, unfolding across Stockholm with mounting dread. It treats radicalization as seduction rather than ideology, making the psychological entrapment feel disturbingly plausible.
