Noi the Albino

Noi the Albino takes place in Sweden in the dead of winter. Sweden is a cold nordic country with a socialist government. Noi is a young teenager who wants to break free of the country's small town and move to a warmer place. As the audience is introduced to the character, we discover that Noi is very intelligent. He later meets a girl, however, in the end of the film there is a deadly avalanche that kills his entire family.

Noi the Albino is an extrememly dark film, it takes place in the dead of winter. The colors of the film are dull to reflect the emotions of the characters and the dull season. The dull brown colors are used to make a connection with the audience and Noi who is very depressed by the nordic country where he lives.

Their culture is somewhat similar to ours. There was a strong connection between Minnesota and the nordic country because both places experience cold winters and depressed times due to the surrounding snow.

It was a depressing film, however, it was interesting to see the impact of the effect of dull colors used in the film's production.
