In a moment of madness a middle-aged, married and respectable pharmacist kills a young woman who is sun-bathing by a lake.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A fever dream of moral vertigo, a respectable man watches the machinery of justice grind toward condemning an innocent person while his own crime eats him from within. The walls close in with mounting psychological pressure.
