How It Feels

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

A lean, atmospheric thriller that uses a hacker's eroding memories as both plot engine and metaphor for identity dissolution. Watching it feels like piecing together a puzzle while the pieces keep changing shape.
