How It Feels

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

A gritty prison drama where a father's desperate attempt to reconnect with his abandoned son becomes a downward spiral of manipulation and danger. Claustrophobic and morally murky, the film captures the brutal politics of incarceration where even surrendering doesn't guarantee mercy.
