There were some beautifully filmed scenes but put together they don't make a good enjoyable movie. There's no dialogue, most scenes are pointless and the homoeroticism is uncomfortable. This is one of those movies where pseudo intellectuals pretend to love this but really what normal person could enjoy this mindless drivel.

I watched a movie in film class called the Color of Pomegranate years ago. That was a stuffy, meaningless film along the same lines as this one. Go check out that out too if you want some unexplained existentialism. Both are similar in that there is no plot. I kept waiting for something to happen in Travail to grab me and it never occurred. The tension between Sentain and the protagonist is non existent.

A decent episode, a couple tweaks with editing and cinematography and it could've been really cool.

But why so many women in this show? This is absurd how hard this show wants a 50/50 men to women ratio. Women in action series/movies = boring and unbelievable (even if it is sci-fi)
