Summary:

In the year of 2041, this si-fi drama explores the extremes a mother would go to in order to secure her daughter's future. In this near-future city where soaring opulence overshadows economic hardship, Gwen and her daughter Jules do all they can to hold on to their joy together, despite the instability surfacing in their world. The tale of a mother's desperate sacrifice, "Advantageous" presents an offbeat, intimate dystopian vision that is strongly intriguing for a while.
