How It Feels

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

A slow-burn psychological horror that uses domestic unease and creeping dread to explore the terror of maternal loss. The film conflates psychological breakdown with supernatural presence, making it unclear where Maite's fear ends and something genuinely malevolent begins.
