Synopsis

On a human-colonized Luna two centuries after aliens conquered Earth, journalist Hildy Johnson navigates a post-scarcity society where body modification and sex changes are routine. When the Central Computer that sustains all life on the Moon begins exhibiting disturbing behavior, Hildy's personal crisis of meaning intersects with an existential threat to lunar civilization.
