"azuloscuro- casinegro" which translates verbatim "darkblue almostblack" is a delightful story from Spain. Written and directed by Daniel Sánchez Arévalo, it's the story of Jorge. It opens with Jorge's lame attempt to tell his father that he does not want to follow in his footsteps as an apartment building's janitor. An event that gives his father a stroke, and cements his guilt based fate...or does it? It takes an incarcerated estranged brother, his jailhouse girlfriend, Jorge's upwardly mobile teen-age crush suddenly returned from school in Germany, and Jorge's sexually confused best friend to help him discover that fate is really a moveable feast.
Delightfully played from start to finish.
