The Big Nothing, on Facebook Watch and YouTube
Dust.tv; IMDb; YouTube

This 2018 series was presented by Dust in 2021.

This is a neo noir series. The title refers to space. As far as I can tell, Dust is the first website to host the series, after it spent a few years being shown at film festivals. And it seems to have been released as five separate episodes, each about 8-9 minutes long, on Facebook. But I saw it on YouTube, in a single video.

It's set on a deep space mining station with a crew of four, including the captain, who has been murdered. A detective named David Lennox is sent to find out which of the three other crew members is guilty, but they each have their own motives for the crime. And there's a greater external threat that eventually presents itself. That's all I want to say, but I thought it was reasonably interesting.
