How It Feels

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

A charming uncle's arrival in a sleepy California town cracks open the façade of a perfect American life, turning intimate family moments into a creeping horror of divided loyalties and dark secrets. This is a masterwork in making the familiar feel menacing.
