How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A deeply unnerving intrusion narrative where a sinister stranger's presence corrupts a quiet domestic space through mounting psychological and supernatural menace. This is a film that burrows under the skin, tense, weird, and fundamentally about violation.
