How It Feels

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

A deceptively spare drama about childhood cruelty and the fragility of adolescent control, where a girl's attempt at romantic agency spirals into something far darker and more consequential than she imagined.
