The first thing I would do is choose a lead character. 394 people is way too many lead characters.
Agree with FFF, the premise is "very conceptual", which is, to say too abstract to visualize.? What the visual on "conquering 5 world problems"?? What are the 5 problems?
And why? 5?? Why not 4 or 3 or 2 or ?just 1??? Who/what has created this? apocalypse??It didn't just happen.
Who made the call on the 394 people to cull from the herd of 8 billion people on earth?? Who transported them, gave them the problems to solve-- or else?
Who devised this "apocalyptic game", established completely arbitrary rules, and arbitrarily dictated who must play or perish?? And why?
The premise relies on too much "magic", too many?arbitrary rules and ?extraordinary?departures from the norms of the world as we know it.? It raises more questions? in my mind about how all the pieces fit together ?than interest in how it plays out.
fwiw
In my opinion this part needs to be more clear "conquer five world problems".
I feel like the whole thing is very conceptual and fails to become a powerful story. Visually, what the characters do in the movie? I can't see it.
