How It Feels

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

A pseudo-documentary descent into folk horror that uses found-footage techniques to create an intimate, claustrophobic portrait of a family unraveling under supernatural possession, where the true horror emerges from what lies beneath their spiritual beliefs.
