How It Feels

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

A stark, visually austere interpretation of Shakespeare's tragedy that strips the story to its psychological core, where ambition and guilt spiral into paranoia and self-destruction. The black-and-white cinematography and precise formalism create a suffocating atmosphere that mirrors Macbeth's moral and mental unraveling.
