How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A darkly intelligent ensemble drama set within a psychiatric hospital where petty institutional conflicts mask deeper psychological fractures. The seemingly trivial becomes a window into the fragile psyches of both patients and staff.
