In this sci-fi retelling of Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Tell-Tale Heart,” a pair of astronauts work on a small space station orbiting a distant planet. As the mysterious narrator attempts to convince himself of his sanity while describing his brutal act of murder, he becomes haunted by a thunderous heartbeat that could only come from the far reaches of space.
Directors’ Statement
We are inspired by classic sci-fi and horror movies of the past. Even in a futuristic setting, Poe’s literature seamlessly translates to the screen with tangible, hand-crafted sets, liquid planet elements, elegant performances and classical music. We are excited to share ORBIT to the world, and we hope you enjoy it.
