How It Feels

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

A provocative speculative thriller that pits strangers against an algorithmic judge deciding who deserves to live. It's a cold, high-stakes game that forces uncomfortable questions about who gets to make those decisions and what makes a life worth defending.
