What Level 9 is about

Nine levels underground, sealed for longer than anyone remembers. Everyone has a shift, everyone has a bunk, and who is allowed to be with whom is decided by a lottery. The draw is compulsory, the result is law. On level 9 an engineer is assigned a young mechanic. Assigned for the work, not for anything more. Level 9 is a Fantasy series with no dragons, but with ventilation shafts, cameras and a clock counting down every shift. The place makes the rules, and the rules are the enemy.

Episode 1 is called Not On The List, and that says everything about the two of them. They are on no list, so they are not allowed. Between Shifts shows how they do it anyway: in the minutes between two shifts, in a room where the camera happens not to be running. The series tells forbidden closeness as logistics. Who may be where and when, which door stays open for how long. You see no skin, you see looks, hands on tools, a message on a display that someone else could read.

Play To The Camera is the episode where they learn to perform for the surveillance. The Draw Is Rigged asks whether the lottery is honest at all. One Hour is exactly that: an hour that somebody gives them or takes away. Six episodes, each one to two minutes, in portrait format. Level 9 is the series for you if you like dystopias where love is the only thing that is not assigned. The characters are adults and AI-generated.

Questions about Level 9

Is Level 9 a science fiction series?

More dystopia than science fiction. There are no spaceships, just a bunker with nine levels and a lottery that dictates the couples. DreamyShorts files the series under Fantasy because the world is invented. The technology stays in the background, up front are two people and a ban.

Is Level 9 free on DreamyShorts?

The first episode plays here free and with no sign-up. From episode 2 you need the subscription. There is no trial with a countdown and no discount that runs out tomorrow. You watch episode 1, then you decide with a clear price in front of you.

How does Level 9 end?

With an episode called One Hour, and we are saying no more than that. The series answers the question of whether the lottery is rigged and shows what the two of them make of it. Six episodes, a complete story, no second season needed. You are not left standing at an open door at the end.
