How It Feels

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

A deeply disturbing descent into necrophilic obsession and psychological unraveling, set in a claustrophobic boarding house where voyeurism and transgression simmer beneath polite surfaces. The film treats its transgressive subject matter with lurid intensity rather than exploitation.
