How It Feels

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

A visceral descent into psychological unraveling where a woman's grip on reality fractures amid terrifying visions and the loss of her child. The film doesn't look away from the horror of mental illness, finding moments of fragile grace only in music.
