How It Feels

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

A gritty prison noir where an undercover cop navigates a hellish institution run by the corrupt and ruthless, uncovering a scheme that turns dead men into disposable killers. It's a paranoid thriller thick with institutional decay and double-crosses.
