If you’re in the mood for an ethereal blank slate of a movie that’s more about mood than movement, Infinite Sea (Mar Infinito) might be your ticket. It’s set in a gray dystopian future or alternate reality. A handful of characters remain in a largely abandoned city. The lights are still on, but hardly anyone is at home. Most have been selected for space travel to colonize other worlds light-years away. Nuno Nolasco stars as a young man who was rejected by whoever is picking the pilgrims, and now spends his life trying to hack into that system to create a spot for himself. He meets a waiflike woman (Maria Leite) who may or may not help him achieve that goal.
Though only 78 minutes, the film seems longer, as eerie music and barren surroundings dominate over words and deeds. The film’s tone is more melancholy than Kirsten Dunst’s Melancholia.
