If the budget is small, the story has to be cool, so money won't matter.
This swiss production has a very low budget but tries its very best to look good. But the story... It is slow paced, it is predictable and it is no good at all.
In a nutshell, earth is inhabitable, everyone exiles to near orbit space stations. But there is Rhea, a second most beautiful earth. Only the rich can make it there. A medical doctor signs on a cargo ship to earn herself the money to do just right that. She discovers Rhea is a fake, just some VR. By the way meets a terrorists and falls in love for him, but tragically in the end loses him.
One does not have to be that bright to guess all that after an hour into the movie. And meanwhile it is the thousands time we see dark, metal clad corridors of a rotten space ship.
The cast underacts to the extreme. I am not sure whether they simply can't do any better. And believe me, it is very hard to sympathize with anyone. It is only in the last 10 minutes emotions somewhat become visible. This is not credible at all. I must confess I think the acting and/or the direction is lousy.
And it is not a problem of the budget. They have a small story and broaden it to almost 2 hours. Boooring!
