muted, silvery, high-contrast colour
Cold monochrome blue is a nearly colourless steel-blue grade with deep blue-black shadows and a wintry quiet.
18Live-action footage, real people, natural skin and textures, in a cold monochrome blue look: a nearly colourless image tinted steel blue, cold highlights, deep blue-black shadows and a wintry quiet. A city street in the late afternoon. A young man in a dark wool coat walks along the sidewalk past shop windows toward a small corner café. Wide shot, the camera tracking sideways beside him at walking pace from the first second. 0–2s: he walks past a row of shop windows. 2–4s: he passes a flower stall and a parked bicycle. 4–6s: he reaches the café and the camera eases to a stop as he does. 6–8s: he opens the café door and steps inside. Throughout: the image stays a cold, nearly colourless steel blue, one continuous take.

Say "nearly colourless" and name the tint. It keeps a hint of the flowers' colour instead of going flat grey.
