How It Feels

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

A provocative clash between a wealthy woman and a working-class man on a deserted island that weaponizes seduction, humiliation, and ideological conflict into an uncomfortable love story. Lina Wertmüller's film doesn't offer easy answers about desire, dominance, or who's really in control.
