How It Feels

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

A slow-burn folk horror film that transforms domestic anxiety into creeping dread, as a mother's attempts to protect her son spiral into nightmarish uncertainty about who he really is. The rural setting and folkloric threat create a suffocating atmosphere where the safest place, home, becomes the most dangerous.
