Sorry for just now replying to this, but this is in my top 50 films ever. At the same time, it's hard to reccomend, precisely for the reasons you layed out... it's hard to explain why I connect with it... "A film you can explain in words is not a successful film." - M. Antonioni... haha, great quote.. but it sums up this movie... it's one of those films that really haunted me for weeks. It's a very confounding movie experience, unlike any I've ever seen before. Just something about this one...
One of my favorite Antonionis -- and a surprisingly good starting place, though most will tell you otherwise -- is IDENTIFICATION OF A WOMAN.
