Orion and the Dark Movie Trailer HD - Plot synopsis: Orion seems a lot like your average elementary school kid -- shy, unassuming, harboring a secret crush.
But underneath his seemingly normal exterior, Orion is a ball of adolescent anxiety, completely consumed by irrational fears of bees, dogs, the ocean, cell phone waves, murderous gutter clowns, even falling off a cliff.
But of all his fears, the thing he's the most afraid of is what he confronts on a nightly basis: the dark.
So when the literal embodiment of his worst fear pays a visit, Dark whisks Orion away on a roller coaster ride around the world to prove there is nothing to be afraid of in the night.
As the unlikely pair grow closer, Orion must decide if he can learn to accept the unknown -- to stop letting fear control his life and finally embrace the joy of living.
Based on the book by Emma Yarlett and written by Charlie Kaufman (I'm Thinking of Ending Things), DreamWorks Animation's Orion and the Dark tells a story about looking what scares you in the eye -- and realizing it may not be that frightening after all.
