How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A haunting, claustrophobic meditation on confinement and strange intimacy between a caretaker and an otherworldly child. Beneath its fairy-tale eeriness lies a slow-building unease about autonomy, corruption, and what we owe to those we're entrusted to protect.
