How It Feels

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

A haunting meditation on death and moral reckoning wrapped in supernatural folklore, told through layered flashbacks and spectral visions. The film moves between intimate human suffering and vast cosmic dread, asking whether even the most broken soul can find salvation before time runs out.
