How It Feels

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

A quiet, unsettling study of power dynamics and shame set in a 1960s summer camp, where one man's discovery of his friend's secret becomes a tool for sustained cruelty. The film moves with glacial pacing, forcing you to sit uncomfortably with both characters as their relationship corrodes.
