Five hundred years in the future, she’ll enter a world where machines rule the earth. Mankind has been driven under ground, and Cleopatra is about to discover, there’s no place like home. That is the voiceover from the opening credits of Cleopatra 2525, and it gives a good basic idea of the story. What it […]
