How It Feels

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

A visceral descent into Arctic brutality where two damaged men confront their demons amid whaling ships and frozen waste. This is a slow, unsparing portrait of how violence and trauma corrode the soul.
