About This Movie

So 'Hands' is an interesting piece; it's this drama that dives straight into domestic turmoil with a bit of a surreal twist. The story revolves around a seamstress whose life goes off the rails when her husband injures her in a fit of rage. But then, it takes this unexpected turn. She grows a second pair of arms, which is just wild. The practical effects are quite striking, integrating that surreal element into a very real struggle.
