How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A suffocating descent into the psychological and physical torment of submarine warfare, where men trapped in metal are hunted relentlessly and broken by the impossibility of their mission. The film trades heroic mythology for the grinding reality of fear, exhaustion, and the razor-thin line between duty and desperation.
