How It Feels

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

A stark, disorienting reckoning with the cost of bearing witness to violence and the ways trauma can transform a person's relationship to civilization itself. The film moves unflinchingly through horror into philosophical territory, blurring the line between the civilized and the animal.
