How It Feels

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

A propulsive noir-thriller that tangles psychological unraveling with criminal investigation, as fragmented memories and brutal murders force two detectives and an amnesiac woman toward a dangerous collision with an organized crime syndicate. The film uses fractured narrative and disorientation to mirror its characters' fractured minds.
