Mood Indigo

MOOD INDIGO is the surreal and poetic tale of Colin (Romain Duris, Heartbreaker), an idealistic and inventive young man, and Chloe (Audrey Tatou, Amelie), a young woman who seems like the physical embodiment of the eponymous Duke Ellington tune. Their idyllic marriage is turned on its head when Chloe falls sick with a water lily growing in her lung. To pay for her medical bills in this fantasy version of Paris, Colin must go out to work in a series of increasingly absurd jobs, while around them, their apartment disintegrates and their friends, including the talented Nicolas (Omar Sy), and Chick (Gad Elmaleh) - a huge fanof the philosopher Jean-Sol Partre - go to pieces. Directed by the truly inimitable Michel Gondry (Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind, The Science Of Sleep), MOOD INDIGO is full of the wonderfully inventive flourishes synonymous to Gondry, that cinema audiences the world over adore. It is both a sumptuous feast for the eyes and a passionate song for the heart. © Pinnacle Films 2012 (Original Title: Mood Indigo)
