How It Feels

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

A spaghetti western that interrogates the nature of justice itself, following an increasingly obsessive manhunt that peels back layers of false accusation and moral ambiguity. The film builds relentless tension while questioning whether vengeance and vigilantism serve truth or merely perpetuate cruelty.
