Acclaimed Filmmaker Sid Lucero Returns with Psychological Sci-Fi Horror The Atlas Field — Official Trailer Released | HNN

The film stars Giuseppe Pestillo and Davide Fusinato as Daniel and Henry, two estranged brothers thrust into an inexplicable nightmare. Afflicted by a terminal illness, Daniel convinces Henry to accompany him to the summit of a mountain they visited together during their childhood. Daniel’s goal is simple yet devastating: to end his suffering on his own terms.

However, their pilgrimage takes a dark turn as they enter the wilderness. The mountain is surrounded by a mysterious project run by Sirevo, a secretive private corporation whose local operations have sparked intense scrutiny. As unexplained phenomena multiply throughout the forest, the brothers’ journey devolves into a direct confrontation with a environment that defies explanation—a place where the rules of time bend, and the past may never have truly disappeared.

The Atlas Field marks a distinct continuation of Lucero’s signature thematic explorations. As a screenwriter and director, Lucero has built a reputation for bypassing traditional horror tropes to focus heavily on psychological unease, alienation, guilt, and identity. His narrative style relies on evocative imagery and open-ended interpretation, a technique previously showcased in his avant-garde filmography, which includes Pink for the Masses, The John Perkins Tapes, Sehnsucht, and Transcendental.

Produced by Dog Food Productions, The Atlas Field limited DVD edition is slated to release September 4, 2026. The newly released trailer offers a glimpse into the film’s suffocating tension, breathtaking but hostile landscapes, and the powerful emotional intensity driving its lead actors.
