This movie could very easily be called "Days of our Lives" considering the intense and very real story that tells. However, it manages to became a very special different kind of movie by the way it's played. I guess by now you can have an idea that this isn't one of those regular movies about "boy meets girl and falls in love and then there's life" that we are used to. It can get confusing and even a bit disturbing because of that, but in end that's what I found amazing. The very particular thing in this movie is the different way that colors, lights and movements were used to connect us with the story and set our emotions.At the beginning I hated it and really considered stop watching it. If it wasn't for my stubbornness to always watch the entire movie, knowing what I know now, I would have regretted! Yes, at the beginning it's confusing and weird. However when we reach the end we realize how the weirdness of the beginning helped setting the tone for the feelings that the story is supposed to bring. Mood Indigo could easily be a lifetime drama that would amaze simple audiences and not conqueror many more then the usual dramas, but the way on how it's played, like a children story (with a too much strong content to be played for kids!), kind of related to the more innocent me and made me feel the end with more intensity. I guess resuming it, this movie doesn't appear to be a regular life story but it is and I just loved the fact that was treated in a special way, making it's connection to a real story much bigger and in that way bringing more emotion. It's no spectacular movie but it's very interesting to watch. Also I think the title translation for English sort of lost a little bit of the message that the movie it's trying to pass.
