How It Feels

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

A stark examination of life in a crowded psychiatric ward that keeps its gaze unflinching on both patient suffering and the emotional toll on those assigned to care for them. The hospital becomes a pressure cooker where institutional indifference and human vulnerability collide.
