Description: In 2092, Earth is nearly uninhabitable, forcing humanity to seek refuge in a new orbiting habitat created by the UTS Corporation. However, only a select few are granted access to this sanctuary. The story centers on the crew of *The Victory*, a spaceship dedicated to collecting space debris, which includes discarded satellites and abandoned spacecraft. Their routine is disrupted when they discover Dorothy, a humanoid child robot rumored to be a weapon of mass destruction. Facing financial struggles and personal aspirations, the crew embarks on a perilous mission filled with unexpected twists. As they navigate the dangers of space, they also compete with rival scavengers for valuable resources.
*Space Sweepers* portrays a future where humans exploit recycling for profit in a polluted, resource-scarce environment. Despite its adventurous tone, the film reflects societal divisions, contrasting the privileged elite with the impoverished who must resort to unconventional means to survive. The narrative evolves when the crew encounters Dorothy, an android mistaken for a terrorist threat due to her alleged destructive capabilities. Her innocent appearance creates a striking parallel to the challenges faced by the characters, reminiscent of the dynamics in *Monsters Inc.*
This sci-fi tale combines action, humor, and thought-provoking themes, offering a glimpse into a potential future shaped by humanity’s failures.
