How It Feels

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

A fever dream of passionate desire spiraling into psychological devastation, told through the fragmented memories of a woman teetering between sanity and delusion. The film luxuriates in noir shadows and emotional wreckage as jealousy and unrequited love metastasize into something far darker.
