How It Feels

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

A morally suffocating examination of faith tested to its breaking point, where a priest granted nine days outside a concentration camp faces impossible choices that force him to confront what he'll sacrifice for survival. The film is a psychological standoff, intimate, oppressive, and deeply rooted in the corruption of power.
