How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A relentless descent into consequence and regret: each attempt to fix the past spirals into something worse, trapping you in a nightmare logic where good intentions breed horror. The experience is vertigo-inducing and deeply uncomfortable, a film about the weight of choices that never lets you find solid ground.
