How It Feels

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

A slow-building tragedy about how a single false accusation can unravel a man's entire life, told with cold precision and mounting horror. Haneke-like in its refusal to look away from human cruelty, it's devastating rather than redemptive.
