After twelve years in prison, Walter returns home. His family has abandoned him, save for his brother-in-law. Few know he's a sex offender and pedophile. Walter finds an apartment and is regularly visited by his parole officer. He gets a job at a lumber mill and starts seeing a coworker. Then his new world begins to unravel; as his past becomes known, he strikes up a high-risk friendship with a young girl and realizes that a man loitering near a schoolyard is a child molester prowling for his next victim.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A deeply uncomfortable examination of one man's attempt to rebuild after committing unforgivable acts, trapping the viewer in his desperate, fractured perspective. The film offers no easy moral resolution, only the grinding tension of a past that refuses to stay buried.
