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 folklore and paranoia where a skeptical outsider finds herself trapped between colonial dismissal and genuine supernatural terror. The film uses cultural specificity and body horror to ask uncomfortable questions about what's real and what we refuse to see.
