The concept was cool and unique. It frankly reminded me of Cronenberg, but they completely squandered it.
It has so much potential if they actually delved into the awesome concepts, but instead they tried to make it a character-driven drama and didn't even flesh out the characters properly.
They gave us a glimpse of an intriguing world I'd love to explore and adventure in, but they chose not to pursue it.
It's a classic poor people are treated like vermin while the rich hoard all the resources, but the plot didn't even deal with it much. It was just a slow moving day-in-the-life of a girl and her father in an unfortunate circumstance, but with such a fantastic sci-fi setting it didn't really fit. It's like you got a small taste of both worlds but never got to enjoy either fully. The high sci-fi concepts detracted from the drama they tried to build, and the drama didn't allow us to actually fully explore the high sci-fi concepts.
All in all, I finished watching it, but found it pretty boring. Wouldn't recommend it or rewatch it.
