How It Feels

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

A black-and-white descent into philosophical abstraction where vampirism becomes a meditation on compulsion and control. Intimate and cerebral, it privileges intellectual struggle over visceral horror.
