How It Feels

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

A dreamlike descent into Russian folklore and psychological horror where love and death become increasingly indistinguishable. The film blurs the line between Marina's fight to save her fiancé and the strange, melancholic seduction of the underwater realm itself.
