How It Feels

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

A meticulously constructed life unravels in an instant when a mathematician's thesis presentation goes catastrophically wrong, spiraling into an intimate exploration of perfectionism, doubt, and the fragility of identity built on achievement. Quiet and psychologically penetrating, the film traces one woman's unmooring as certainty crumbles.
