## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

You lead a ragtag team of juggers in a post-apocalyptic wasteland. But a past scandal exiled you from the League. When Kidda joins, you see a shot at redemption.

Peoples’ script subverts genre beats. The action is secondary to bleak examinations of class.

**Mood tags**: dread, raw, slow-burn
