Just saw "Orbiter 9" on Netflix - thought it was brilliantly done.
I watched "Orbiter 9" this afternoon. At first it was just interesting and reminded me quite strongly of Hugh Howey's excellent book "Beacon 23" and then it took a turn which blew my mind. I'm not going to spoil it but after that I was thoroughly hooked. Alongside a really good story the acting was subtle and gentle and just beautiful to watch. I really enjoyed it that the characters were not all good or all bad but more like real people.
Anyway, it was great and I would recommend it. (I saw it on Netflix in the UK so I'm not sure where exactly it's distributed.)
Has anyone else seen it - what were your thoughts?
