How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A bleak examination of violence and justice that traps you in the moral claustrophobia of two men, one who kills without reason, one who must argue against killing in return, forcing an uncomfortable confrontation with the machinery of punishment itself.
