How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A methodical thriller that traps its protagonist in an intimate, brutal cat-and-mouse game with an unseen killer, where every wrong move carries devastating consequences she's forced to witness in real-time. The film's tension derives not from shock but from the suffocating sense of helplessness in an unequal contest.
