How It Feels

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

A gothic ghost story that's as much a tragedy about loss and longing as it is a supernatural mystery. The manor itself becomes a character in a densely layered narrative where the living and dead are bound by secrets and devotion.
