Melancholia ! Beautiful film, great cast, but most importantly it does an amazing job at not only representing depression but also getting the viewer to FEEL the depression and sense of doom that the lead feels, while also portraying the helplessness and confusion of their loved ones. Plus it's a great end of the world film (best genre)
it pretty much looks at depression and goes "wait. what if the world WAS actually ending?"
