How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A shipwrecked astronaut wakes up on an alien world where the social hierarchy is inverted, apes rule and humans are hunted animals. The film's slow-building dread and final twist reframe everything you've just witnessed into something far darker about civilisation itself.
