Space Sweepers
In SPACE SWEEPERS, the spaceship Victory has four down-on-their-luck crewmembers trying to survive a dying world circa 2092. Earth has now almost fully succumbed to the ravages of climate change, and while a select few now live in a new bucolic orbiting space home made by the giant corporation UTS, the Victory crewmembers -- Captain Jang, Mr. Park, Tae-ho, and the android, Bubs -- are barely making a living as "space sweepers": renegades who fly around Earth trying to collect space debris to sell for money. After beating out other space sweepers to an abandoned shuttle, they find a 7-year-old girl who was injected with nanotech android qualities. According to news reports, her name is Dorothy, and it's said that she was taken by a terrorist group, and now there is a large reward from UTS for her return. Desperate for money, the four concoct a scheme to return Dorothy, but it doesn't take long for these hardened pirates to warm up to Dorothy, who is actually named Kot-nim and draws pictures of each of them, restores the life to their tomato plant, and charms each of them with her childlike kindness. After failed attempts to turn Kot-nim over to UTS, they learn the real reason why UTS, led by the evil CEO James Sullivan, wants to reclaim her. Sullivan wants to re-create Mars so that it's habitable to humans, but only the most elite humans, and so Kot-nim must be destroyed by pairing her technology with a hydrogen bomb blown up over the Earth, thus killing the billions who still remain. After years of being broken by their lives and fortunes to the point where they have only been out for themselves, the crewmembers of Victory are now the unlikely heroes in stopping Sullivan and saving Kot-nim and the Earth.
