Atrium

About This Movie

Atrium is a fascinating blend of drama and science fiction that really digs into the psyche of its characters. The atmosphere is thick with tension, and you can feel the weight of Travis’s concern for his wife as her mental state unravels. It’s all very intimate, yet there's a creeping feeling that something darker is lurking just beneath the surface. The pacing is deliberate, which allows the viewer to really absorb the emotional turmoil. Practical effects are minimal but effective, enhancing the unsettling incidents that unravel their seemingly perfect life. Performances are nuanced, and there's a certain rawness that makes the story resonate differently than your typical genre fare. The film often leaves you with more questions than answers, which is kind of its charm.
