How It Feels

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

A descent into urban claustrophobia and psychological unraveling, filmed like a document of someone's spiral rather than a conventional narrative. The Tokyo subway becomes a character itself, a maze of shadow and paranoia that blurs the line between documenting real horror and creating it.
