Borealis: Season 1, Episode 1

1 - 1:

The pilot is set in 2045 in the Arctic. The polar ice caps have melted, and it is a matter of dispute who will control the region’s oil and gas reserves, the last on earth. There is something of a “Deadwood in the future” vibe to it. Frankly, it seemed a little too smart for something that Space might have initially hoped would have popular appeal, which may be why Space decided not to make a series.
