Overview

Indigo is a haunting coming-of-age drama centered on Nora, a 13-year-old girl living at the intersection of violence and the irrational. Plagued by visions that disturb everyone around her, Nora finds herself isolated not just by what she sees but by the indifference of those who should protect her — an environment more unsettled by her experiences than moved to help her. The film approaches its young protagonist with sensitivity and visual imagination, raising urgent questions about mental health, childhood trauma, and the failure of adults to truly see the children in their care. A quietly unsettling portrait of adolescent vulnerability and the loneliness of being perceived as different.
