The 3D animation here doesn't look like a video game cutscene the way early 2000s CG does, it moves like something real, which makes the combat feel like you're watching a technical masterclass in how bodies collide with physics. Deunan and Briareos work like a couple that has already survived everything, so when a new Bioroid threatens the certainty between them, it's not melodrama, it's the erosion of something that was supposed to be permanent. The film trusts you to sit with the unease of a world that looks peaceful on the surface but can't stop creating weapons, even when it doesn't need them anymore.
Deunan, a young woman warrior, and Briareos, a seasoned cyborg soldier, are partners in combat and in love. Both belong to E.S.W.A.T., the elite special forces unit of Olympus, which sends them in whenever trouble breaks out. Their partnership faces a new kind of test when an experimental Bioroid named Tereus joins their ranks. The film is a science fiction action story with mecha elements.
