The PV’s YouTube description describes the anime as:

One day in the distant future. Humans live shoulder to shoulder in “colonies” separated by rock.

Outside the colonies, a dangerous undeveloped area called “the Labyrinth” is expanding. Those who risk their lives to develop “the Labyrinth”, who mark out the undeveloped areas, are known as “Markers”.

A young girl, Memempu, who wants to be a Marker one day, and a man, Gagumber, who used to be one.

This mismatched father and daughter now take on the Labyrinth!

“If there’s no path, dig one!”
