G-Saviour (Ｇセイバー Jī-Seibā?) is a Canadian live-action television film created as part of the Gundam franchise. Set as an alternate future of the Universal Century timeline, G-Saviour was produced as a joint effort between the animation studio and creator of Gundam, Sunrise, and an independent film production company, Polestar Entertainment. The film was broadcast in Japan on December 29, 2000 from 16:00 to 17:25 on TV Asahi and its affiliate ANN stations.
The year is Universal Century 0223. The Earth Federation has collapsed, and autonomy has been restored to the various territories under the Earth Federation's control. The Space Colonies have shaken off their colonial past and now consider themselves independent "Settlements". In this new power scheme two sides have emerged: the Congress of Settlement Nations (CONSENT), which is largely made up of former Earth Federation members and encompasses Sides 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, and their Earth-bound parent nations, and the Settlement Freedom League, composed of Sides 1, 4, and the Lunar Cities.
Mark Curran is an ex-CONSENT pilot who now works for the underwater harvesting corporation Hydro-Gen, stationed at the Deep Face Trench sea lab. While out on a harvesting run, Mark saves CONSENT lieutenant Tim Holloway. Shortly after the lieutenant is saved, the lab is commandeered by a Congressional task force, led by Mark's former superior, Jack Halle. As the lab's security system is triggered, Mark goes off to investigate. Mark saves one of the intruders, Cynthia Graves, from Jack's firing squad after she surrenders, while another is killed.
CONSENT is in the midst of food shortage, with its leaders threatening military force to take over the neutral Side 8 colony of Gaea. General Garneuax asks Mark to interrogate Cynthia, who is revealed to be a Gaean rebel. Mark helps Cynthia escape, who shows him an enzyme that will solve the food crisis. The two meet up with Cynthia's interns, Dieter and Kobi, and the four escape into space along with Mark's fiancee Mimi. The group arrives at the Side 4 settlement of New Manhattan, meeting with Philippe San Simeone, an old acquaintance of Mark. Philippe entrusts Mark with a new prototype mobile weapon, the Gundam G-SAVIOUR, but he refuses at first; Mark comes around to piloting the suit to help clear a debris field on the way to Gaea.
