Our take
What the F* Is Going On? is a talking-head documentary about Spain's feminist movement and everyday sexism. Interviews dig into unequal pay, harassment, and violence against women in plain adult language. The title itself carries a masked f-word, and the tone is activist rather than soft. We land at 15 and up because sexual violence and discrimination are discussed as real social problems, not background colour
Uplifting themes
Collective protest and honest conversation are framed as ways to push for fairer treatment. The film leans toward solidarity rather than cynicism Activists and ordinary women speak up with clarity and courage. Their examples favour speaking plainly about unfairness Viewers get a grounded primer on Spain's recent feminist wave, workplace bias, and how inequality shows up in law and culture. Interview detail makes the civic debate easier to follow
