How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A charming doctor's descent into crime as a twisted scientific experiment spirals into a paranoid power struggle with deadly consequences. It's a darkly witty examination of how intellectual curiosity can curdle into dangerous obsession.
