How It Feels

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

A visually extravagant silent fever dream adapted from Wilde's decadent play, where erotic desire and religious transgression collide with grotesque, dreamlike intensity. The film pulses with expressionistic dread as Salomé's fatal bargain unfolds in a palace of shadow and shadow-play.
