How It Feels

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

A quiet, haunting examination of how ordinary people become complicit in institutional evil through silence and self-preservation. The film moves with glacial inevitability toward moral reckoning, letting the weight of Catholic Ireland's secrets accumulate in every scene.
