Two androids, Mother and Father, land on an empty planet with a batch of human embryos and orders to raise the children without religion. Then a ship of devout survivors from Earth arrives.
Starring Amanda Collin, Abubakar Salim, Winta McGrath
Cold, strange science fiction for patient viewers who prefer an odd idea to a tidy plot. Amanda Collin plays Mother with a dancer's grace and a robot's rigidity. The scenes that stay are the face-offs over belief, like the soldier Marcus walking up to the settlement and inviting himself to dinner. Stark alien landscapes fill the frames between them.
Season one is the stranger, tighter run, with a change of pace after Ridley Scott's first two episodes; season two gets bigger.
