How It Feels

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

A methodical, increasingly horrifying investigation into a vanished son that gradually peels back layers of official deception and political complicity. Watching it is an exercise in growing outrage as a father's search for answers collides with the machinery of state denial.
