Dopamine
Dopamine is an indie flick about love, and dissecting it to it’s base of chemical reactions.
It centers around Rand and Sarah. Rand (and his partners Winston and Johnson) create a virtual interactive pet named Koy Koy. They are trying to get the creation on the market, and have to go through a kid testing, allowing an elementary class (taught by Sarah) to demo the program for a while. Rand and Sarah get together, and while Sarah obviously is into Rand, he’s so convinced that love and lust and feelings toward other people in general is based on nothing more than chemical reactions. This even inspires him to create a “mate” for Koy Koy, when he’s able to create a code for pherimones.
The acting is very good (even if John Livingston who plays Rand looks eerily like Ben Afflack in certain angles.) The cinematography is great. The story is fantastic. Basically I LOVED this movie, and I think you will too.
