Atacama

About This Movie

Atacama has this haunting, slow-burn quality that draws you in. The atmosphere is thick with grief and longing, and you can really feel Laura’s desperation as she navigates her loss. The pacing feels deliberate—moments linger, almost meditative, which adds to the tension of her spiral into obsession. The performances are raw; you can see the emotional toll on Laura as she pushes boundaries, risking everything to reconnect with her lost love. There’s a distinct blend of reality and the surreal, leaving you questioning what’s real and what’s imagined. The practical effects, though subtle, enhance that sense of disorientation. It’s a film that lingers in your mind long after the credits roll, exploring themes of love, loss, and the lengths one might go to escape their pain.
