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 cruelty and psychological torment that forces confrontation with cycles of violence and the question of what lies beyond survival. Watching feels like being trapped inside a nightmare that refuses easy catharsis.
