Serenity (2005)
They aim to misbehave.
When the renegade crew of Serenity agrees to hide a fugitive on their ship, they find themselves in an action-packed battle between the relentless military might of a totalitarian regime who will destroy anything – or anyone – to get the girl back and the bloodthirsty creatures who roam the uncharted areas of space. But... the greatest danger of all may be on their ship.
Serenity keeps every mind human — it fights its subject at zero distance. The story fights on E10/E11 of the E0–E14 reality ladder.
