How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A stark, unflinching descent into savagery as desperation pushes a man past the point of humanity. The film watches with unflinching attention as the Tasmanian wilderness becomes as much a captor as the prison system itself.
