Let me put it this way.
There’s very little artistic license taken in the fact that “The Objective” ends with the main character, CIA operative Benjamin Keynes, descending into madness in an almost trance-like state as he witnesses multiple “flares” or one might say “orbs” in the night sky above him.
By the end of the film, Keynes is the sole survivor of a special ops team sent into the Afghan mountains that’s trying to locate a cleric. But it gradually becomes clear that they’re being tracked by some paranormal force. Mysterious lights, beings, and physics-defying events that hint at something like a non-human intelligence.
In the final scenes, Keynes starts recording a frantic monologue about “them” (unseen entities) and “the light,” claiming they are “beings of light” from beyond human understanding.
He references ancient knowledge and even suggests the CIA knew more than it let on, implicating black ops and hidden truths about this reality really works.
This is a bit overlay dramatic, but it’s otherwise very close to how Remote Viewing and related techniques can be made manifest. As well as the side effects, the luminous orbs.
In that final scene, the character’s body language, rapid speech, and fragmented narration all hint at mental breakdown, paranoia, or spiritual possession.
The implication is that prolonged exposure to the “phenomenon” has completely shattered his psyche.
Hopefully this begins to paint a clearer picture of the nature of the phenomenon. Both as deployed by as (humans) and by NHIs (non-humans).
