Synopsis

In a far-future Earth where 3.5 trillion four-toed humans live in vast underground hive cities, an enormous ocean-going harvester built around a genetically modified blue whale becomes the unlikely vehicle for rebellion. Outcasts, misfits, and five-toed throwbacks band together aboard the Rorqual Maru to challenge the Hive's ruthless recycling of anyone who threatens its resources.
