Cling film sticks to your hand due to static electricity and the properties of its material, typically low-density polyethylene. When you pull the film from the roll, it undergoes deformation, which generates static charge. Additionally, the film's surface is designed to be slightly tacky, helping it to adhere to surfaces, including your skin. This combination of static and tackiness allows the cling film to stick effectively.
