A visually ambitious, theologically fraught sci-fi drama about androids raising human children in a hostile colony, where survival and ideology collide in increasingly surreal and ambiguous ways.

After Earth is ravaged by a great religious war, an atheistic android architect sends two of his creations, Mother and Father, to start a peaceful, godless colony on the planet Kepler-22b. Their treacherous task is jeopardized by the arrival of the Mithraic, a deeply devout religious order of surviving humans.
