As Órbitas is a chilling dive into the psyche wrapped in a horror-drama package. Rafael's journey through an eerie, dilapidated hospital is intense, especially since he's blind and bandaged. The atmosphere is thick with dread, and the pacing really kicks in as his memories seep through the darkness. Those haunting flashes of his past connect him to Sofia and her son, Caio, layering the narrative with familial tension. The performances are raw, and the practical effects, while not overly flashy, contribute to an unsettling realism that lingers. It’s this intertwining of psychological depth and horror that gives the film its distinct flavor, making it one of those underground gems that feels like a haunting dream.
