Drew Van Acker’s work in Orion reflects an artist increasingly deliberate about the stories he helps bring to the screen. Involved from the beginning as both star and producer, he anchors the film with a layered performance that gives its questions of truth and perception emotional weight.

Directed by Jaco Bouwer, Orion pairs the intimacy of chamber sci-fi
