How It Feels

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

A gothic psychological thriller that blurs the line between supernatural threat and psychological unraveling, set in an insular boarding school where grief and jealousy feed paranoia. Rebecca's fragile mental state makes it impossible to trust whether Ernessa is truly monstrous or if the real horror lies in female social cruelty and trauma.
