How It Feels

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

A kaleidoscopic fever dream where reality splinters into technicolor chaos, exhilarating and disorienting in equal measure, as the boundary between waking and dream collapses into surreal carnival. Paprika is visual intoxication wrapped around genuine psychological horror.
