How It Feels

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

A slick psychological thriller that wraps a murder mystery around the delicious paranoia of a therapist drawn into danger through attraction and professional compromise. The film maintains a queasy sense that no one can be trusted.
