How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A scholar becomes dangerously fixated on a mummified shaman and a mysterious young woman, blurring the line between academic curiosity and psychological unraveling. The film moves between fascination and body horror, asking whether obsession can consume reason entirely.
