In By Design, a woman becomes a chair and no one minds

Original: A woman swaps bodies with a chair, and everybody likes her better as a chair, in By Design https://www. eyeforfilm.co.uk

A new review of the 2025 film By Design describes an absurdist premise in which a woman swaps bodies with a chair, only to find that everyone around her prefers her in her new form. The film is being discussed as a dark, satirical take on identity, objectification and how society values women.

Why now: The film's striking body-swap premise and satirical edge are drawing attention from critics and film discussions.
