What happens

365 Days (Polish: 365 dni) is a 2020 Polish erotic thriller film directed by Barbara Białowąs and Tomasz Mandes. Based on the first novel of a trilogy by Blanka Lipińska, the plot follows a young Warsaw woman (Anna-Maria Sieklucka) in a relationship falling for a Sicilian man (Michele Morrone), who imprisons and imposes on her a period of 365 days for her to fall in love with him. The film was released theatrically in Poland on 7 February 2020 and was later made available on Netflix on 7 June 2020. The film was panned by critics and garnered a rare 0% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Criticism was directed toward its acting, writing, sex scenes, and romanticization of rape and sexual assault, with many critics drawing unfavorable comparisons to the film Fifty Shades of Grey (2015). It has since been referred to as one of the worst films ever made. However, the film became one of the most watched items in numerous territories on multiple continents, and had one of the longest periods as the most watched item in Netflix's history in the United States. A sequel, 365 Days: This Day, was released on Netflix on 27 April 2022. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
