How It Feels

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

A harrowing ordeal of a man clinging to life in freezing ocean waters, grounded in the grim particulars of hypothermia and rescue. It's claustrophobic despite the open sea, building toward an agonizing question of whether willpower alone can keep a body alive.
