How It Feels

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

A supernatural horror film that plays on the uncanny feeling of inhabiting a new body, what if the gift of sight came with an unbearable burden? It's less jump-scares and more creeping dread, anchored by a protagonist caught between wonder and terror at what she can now perceive.
