Indigo Valley

Reminded me of the European and Scandinavian traditions linked to more avant garde filmmakers. The editing style was unorthodox and left me on edge, completely in tune with the lead character Isabella's emotions. This film deserves recognition not only for tackling an intense subject matter, but for the performances. Although they are subtle, all three performances are real and natural - truly living with the characters: John, Louise and Isabella. Rosie Day as Louise stood out as the most relatable and sympathetic character of the three, but Brandon Sklenar and Jaclyn Bethany also were amazing. Kudos to the talented and fearless Ms. Bethany for being brave enough to write, direct and act in her first feature. In the multi-hyphenate tradition of Barbara Loden and more recently, someone like Amy Seimetz - she's certainly an actor and director to watch. I enjoyed her subtle, dark, nuanced performance. I thought about this film for a week or so after watching it, so I know it's worth it.

I found this film beautiful and haunting. Great watch for fans of slow burn art house thrillers.

A beautiful collection of images that tell an even more compelling story. "Indigo Valley" traces characters so near to life, that they'll curiously feel so familiar. The moments are that of real human struggles, so it will feel familiar and fresh as well. But this story is told with such beautiful images and moments that the movie was beyond captivating and enthralling to watch. Jacyln is really a bright talent to watch out for in upcoming films. She has a voice unlike any other.

Other reviews calling it boring must have just not gotten it... I found this a captivating film with nuanced character work. A fascinating twist at the end! I loved it, definitely worth a watch

Big careers ahead for this cast, crew, writer, and production team who make this intense drama infused with hauntingly beautiful music come to life using an aesthetic setting and powerful intimate character moments. Congrats to all involved!
