How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A methodical, disorienting descent into psychological darkness that uses dreams and fragmented narrative to expose the violence lurking beneath a respectable surface. Bergman's study of a man's crumbling interior life feels less like a thriller and more like a clinical examination of desire, shame, and self-destruction.
