There, the living and the dead existed without responsibilities, had all their needs provided for, and could not be summoned or controlled. The spirits of those who perished in the service of good and those heroes the gods chose to spare from death were rewarded by being placed on the Isles of the Blessed in Thalasia. Yggdrasil, the World Ash, extended its branches to all layers of Elysium, except Belierin.
Depending on who or what was aloft, the shade of the sky could be deep indigo to a bright cerulean at any given moment. There were no suns, moons, or stars in Elysium except those that the inhabiting Powers manifested, created by moving about in various vessels, or moving their entire realms across the skies. Elysian pears were considered some of the best tasting fruit and were sold as far as the planar city of Sigil. Farther from the river smaller trees grew and started to thin until finally, after hundreds of miles/kilometers, the forest gave way to fertile veldt regions, vast grasslands, and eventually badlands and desert. Lands near the riverbanks were lush with pines and flowering trees that filled the air with natural perfume. Oceanus was the counterpart to the river Styx which flowed through the Lower planes except that Oceanus had only natural hazards and contained potable water. Starring: Matt Damon ( Behind the Candelabra), Jodie Foster ( Carnage), Sharlto Copley ( The A-Team).Most features of the four layers of Elysium were found on or near the banks of the river Oceanus which linked the plane with two other Upper planes: the Beastlands and Arborea. However, the overall social themes and dramatic tones of District 9 are replicated too closely for comfort in Elysium. The success of that sci-fi parable allows for this larger, more expensive canvas and star names, where poor, mostly ethnic, humans, not aliens, are the ones segregated to life on Earth as one big refugee camp. Writer-director Blomkamp made a pointed critique about apartheid and its aftermath in his native South Africa in District 9 (2009), which also starred Copley and was made with the mentoring and millions of Sir Peter Jackson.
But to gain access involves stealing information in a dangerous mission that turns Max into an unlikely freedom fighter. His only hope for survival is treatment in one of the CT scanner-type machines that keep the citizens of Elysium above in perfect health.
