How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A haunting psychological noir where a Holocaust survivor, unrecognizable after facial reconstruction, stages an elaborate deception to test whether her husband betrayed her. It's a slow-burn study of trauma, trust, and the gap between who we were and who we become.
