How It Feels

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

A suffocating spiral of humiliation and oppression that erupts into primal, supernatural violence, a horror film where the monster is cruelty itself, and the teenage girl at its center becomes its instrument of retribution.
