How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A delirious thriller where paranoia and mystery deepen with every frame, you're constantly unsure whom to trust as a hidden criminal mastermind manipulates events from the shadows. The film's visual intensity and disorienting logic trap you in the same confusion as its detectives hunting an almost supernatural criminal force.
