About G-Saviour

G-Saviour (G セイバー, Jī Seibā ) is a 1999 American film based on the Gundam franchise. Produced by Polestar Entertainment and Sunrise, it is set in the Universal Century timeline. It was theatrically released on June 18, 1999 in Japan and later aired on TV Asahi on December 29, 2000. It was also available on Japan Airlines (JAL) flights beginning in August 1999.

The year is Universal Century 0223. The Earth Federation has collapsed, and space colonies under the Federation's control were given autonomy. The space colonies are now referred to as space "Settlements". Following the end of the Federation, two opposing powers have emerged: the Congress of Settlement Nations (CONSENT), which is comprised mostly of the former Federation and Sides 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, and the Settlement Freedom League, comprised of Sides 1, 4, and the Lunar Cities.

Various social crises, such as overpopulation and food shortages, have caused instability in the Earth Sphere. CONSENT suffers from a global food shortage, while the Settlement Freedom League has the capability to feed itself and is thus unaffected. When an agricultural breakthrough is made by scientists from the neutral Side 8 Settlement of Gaea, General Garneaux of the CONSENT's Congressional Armed Forces (CAF) resolves to suppress the technology by force. Opposing General Garneaux is the Illuminati, an organization dedicated to maintaining peace in the Earth Sphere.
