How It Feels

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

A fragmented portrait of a woman's life in Paris told through discrete episodes, where philosophical questioning and mundane reality collide. Godard watches without judgment as circumstances and choices unravel her world into something unrecognizable.

Really loved the ending.

It really paints a picture of how men repeatedly show no sign of respect to woman, they use woman for their own gain and ditch them when they don't need them anymore.
I also think the main character is not just a 1 dimensional characicature to only be used for those problems but rather her journey is seeking herself AND a display of problems with how men treat woman.
Great stuff. The cinematography is also wonderful.
