How It Feels

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

A pseudo-documentary that blurs the line between folk legend and lived horror, building unease through testimonies and shadows rather than jump scares. It feels like watching something that shouldn't quite exist, neither fully documentary nor fully fiction.
