About This Movie
Planet of Love is a raw and poignant documentary that delves into the lives of Ngatiyem and her grandson Okta, two residents of an orphanage in Solo. The atmosphere is heavy, almost suffocating, especially when the orphanage relocates to a secluded cemetery. It adds this eerie layer to their already challenging existence. The pacing is deliberate, allowing viewers to really feel Okta's struggles with health and the psychological toll on Ngatiyem as she juggles care and despair. The practical effects are minimal, relying heavily on real-life emotions and the performances are quite stirring, capturing the weight of their reality. It’s distinct in how it reveals the harsh truths surrounding HIV and orphanhood, not shying away from the gritty details.
