How It Feels

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

A brutally cold portrait of violence and vengeance in a frozen landscape, where silence itself becomes weaponized. This revisionist Western refuses catharsis, offering instead a meditation on cruelty, greed, and the corruption of frontier justice.
