Orion is a sci-fi thriller that centers around a NASA interrogator, Jim (Andrew McCarthy), helping to uncover the events that led astronaut, Apollo (Andrew Van Acker), and his crew to crash land back on Earth leaving him the sole survivor.  The film successfully uses its limited set to amplify the growing mystery and reveal a message of significant scope. It is intense and intimate with the bulk of the film relying on Van Acker and McCarthy’s dynamic. The mystery delivers sci-fi and suspense, echoing the style of The Twilight Zone, executed with an indie budget. Orion provokes viewers into questioning the world around them.

Orion had its world premiere at FilmQuest in Provo, Utah on October 25th and its international premiere at Triste Film Festival on November 1st.

SciFi Vision recently had the opportunity to speak with star Van Acker and Director Jaco Bouwer about filming Orion.
