In Future, Humans Are Trapped in the Last City for 300 Years by an Endless Storm Surrounding It — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00300 years ago, a cataclysmic event known
- 0:02as the Great Flood covers most of
- 0:04Earth's landmass with water, only
- 0:05leaving a few islands behind. Since
- 0:07then, an electrical storm is constantly
- 0:09blocking the horizon. With the old world
- 0:11buried underwater, survivors build a
- 0:13fortified city called Argos on the
- 0:15ruins.
- 0:15>> [music]
- 0:15>> This city is controlled by the immortal
- 0:17founders. Unfortunately, not everyone
- 0:19can move to Argos. The founders take
- 0:21advantage of people's desperation by
- 0:23forcing them to participate in speedboat
- 0:24races known as storm riding. Each island
- 0:27sends two riders, and the winner gets to
- 0:28move with all their people to Argos. The
- 0:30losers get their island stripped bare
- 0:32and their people are cast into the sea.
- 0:34Islanders believe that one day a chosen
- 0:35rider will set them free. On Fig Island,
- 0:38Neb sees all the posters and catchy
- 0:39advertisements from Argos promoting the
- 0:41race and even offering sponsorship.
- 0:43>> [music]
- 0:43>> Then he goes to help the team in charge
- 0:44of the boat that will represent the
- 0:46island in the next race. His friend Anna
- 0:48shows him a collection of Hammerhead
- 0:49posters and shares the story. Legend
- 0:51says Hammerhead was struck by lightning,
- 0:53that he saved his island, and that he
- 0:54never lost a race. Some people believe
- 0:56he broke through the storm on the
- 0:57horizon and reached the other [music]
- 0:59side. Others think he crashes the races
- 1:00from time to time so he can win a palace
- 1:02for all islanders. Other people don't
- 1:04think he's real at all. Anna thinks this
- 1:06[music] could be Neb and her someday,
- 1:07but her father Lazar tells them they
- 1:09don't need legends because they have
- 1:10him. He says goodbye to his daughter and
- 1:12kisses a photo [music] of his late wife
- 1:13before getting ready for the race. One
- 1:15of the mechanics reminds him that once
- 1:16he gets to Neptune's Rock, he'll only
- 1:18have 10 seconds to break away. It turns
- 1:20out Lazar isn't participating to win. He
- 1:22wants to breach the storm to uncover the
- 1:24truth. A commentator on Argos introduces
- 1:26the riders, calling Fig Island the
- 1:28underdog before the race finally [music]
- 1:29begins. All the riders handle their
- 1:31boats with impressive skill and one of
- 1:33them even manages to catch some
- 1:34lightning, which provides quite a boost
- 1:36and pushes the boat into first place.
- 1:38>> [music]
- 1:38>> Another rider's cape accidentally covers
- 1:40his vision and causes him to crash into
- 1:41a rock. When a rider tries to move past
- 1:43the boat in first place, the maneuver
- 1:45fails and it ends up crashing, too. As
- 1:47soon as there's an opening, Lazar
- 1:49abandons the race and takes the boat
- 1:50toward the storm on the horizon. The
- 1:52commentator says this is the fifth
- 1:53incident this season. Lazar speeds up
- 1:56and tries his best to avoid the
- 1:57lightning, but unfortunately the boat is
- 1:59hit anyway and it explodes. Anna cries
- 2:01and swears to avenge her father as she
- 2:02listens to the news on the radio. The
- 2:04commentator announces that Fig Island is
- 2:06now banned from racing for the next 10
- 2:08years. A few days later, Neb does a
- 2:10presentation in class about the islands
- 2:12beyond the horizon, saying that titans
- 2:14live there. His teacher scolds him and
- 2:15reminds him that there's nothing on the
- 2:17other side of the storm. Then a kid
- 2:18mocks him. When Anna comes to his
- 2:20defense, she gets scolded, too. Neb
- 2:22insists that the storm is a light
- 2:24created by the founders and his
- 2:25classmates start throwing objects at
- 2:26him. After class, a teacher talks to
- 2:29Neb's father Nicola, asking him to do
- 2:30something about his son's behavior. That
- 2:32night, Neb stands on top of a tree while
- 2:35a furious storm takes over the sky. Anna
- 2:37begs him to come down, but he refuses.
- 2:39Suddenly a lightning bolt strikes the
- 2:41tree and Neb, who falls to the ground
- 2:43with smoke emanating from him as he
- 2:44thinks he can finally be like
- 2:45Hammerhead. On the island of Ceos,
- 2:47guards take over the streets to start
- 2:49the eviction since both Ceos riders died
- 2:51in the race. A high-ranking Argos
- 2:53official known as the Baroness keeps an
- 2:55eye on everyone as the guards violently
- 2:56push the locals to the boats. After
- 2:58everyone is kicked out, the founders
- 3:00send machines to start digging. They're
- 3:01looking [music] for a substance they
- 3:02call the element, which is set to defy
- 3:04death itself. On Fig, Neb is still in
- 3:07bed suffering from his injuries.
- 3:08Desperate to help him, his grandfather
- 3:10Dida decided to do something he swore to
- 3:12never do again. With an axe, he slashes
- 3:14a tree's branch and gathers the blue
- 3:16liquid that comes out of it. Then he
- 3:17puts this liquid on Neb's eyes, causing
- 3:19him to have a vision of Hammerhead
- 3:21sailing into the storm.
- 3:22>> [music]
- 3:22>> Neb's eyes also turn stormy. When the
- 3:24excavation is done, the Baroness informs
- 3:26the founders that they didn't find
- 3:27anything. It turns out the element is
- 3:29the blue liquid Dida used, and they only
- 3:31have a decade left in reserve. The
- 3:33founders consider taking all the
- 3:34remaining islands by force, but the
- 3:36Baroness points out that if all the
- 3:37islanders together outnumber the Argos
- 3:39army, she thinks it's time [music] to
- 3:40accept their fate and uses the
- 3:42expression amor fati, which means that
- 3:43both good and bad things are necessary
- 3:45in life. [music] Leader Taras disagrees
- 3:47and says he makes his own fate. He also
- 3:49scolds her for using that expression
- 3:50because it was used by the infamous
- 3:52thief, Sikas. Taras decides they must
- 3:54increase the races to empty the islands
- 3:56more quickly and avoid any more
- 3:57incidents. Sometime later, Neb finally
- 3:59leaves the bed and points at the window
- 4:01as he has a vision of Hammerhead in a
- 4:02mysterious tunnel. Neb can't understand
- 4:04his visions, which often come without
- 4:06warning. Dita hugs him to comfort him.
- 4:08>> [music]
- 4:08>> Meanwhile, a group of guards is diving
- 4:10and finds a sunken vessel. They inform
- 4:12Taras that they found Sikas' wreckage in
- 4:13the Bay of Gaia, so Taras sends soldiers
- 4:16to the islands in the area hoping that
- 4:17he's still around. At the same time,
- 4:19Dita warns Nikola that he's seen the
- 4:20Baroness' flag on the coast, which means
- 4:22she's coming for Neb. Rumors of the
- 4:24wreckage spread fast, so Anna and Neb
- 4:26take a boat to the Bay of Gaia even
- 4:27though Dita always forbade his grandson
- 4:29from going there. After admiring an
- 4:31amazing statue, they look underwater and
- 4:33see the guards inspecting the wreckage.
- 4:35When the kids try to leave,
- 4:36>> [music]
- 4:36>> a guard captures them and takes them to
- 4:38the Baroness. While the duo pretends
- 4:39their boat ran dry and got lost, a
- 4:41soldier smells Anna's hair and concludes
- 4:43they're from Fig. The Baroness explains
- 4:45she's looking for a boy who was touched
- 4:47by the storm as she looks at Neb's eyes.
- 4:49Then she agrees to take the kids home
- 4:50and tells them how good life in Argos
- 4:52is. She also says that those touched by
- 4:54the storm can see through the cracks of
- 4:55time and their own destinies. The
- 4:57Baroness gives Anna a compass,
- 4:59explaining that taming your own fears
- 5:00makes a big difference. When the
- 5:02Baroness drops off the kids on Fig, she
- 5:04says Neb is a writer and not a farm boy,
- 5:06so a sponsor will be waiting for him
- 5:07when he grows up. Afterward, Dita tells
- 5:09the kids that he planted his tree the
- 5:11day Neb was born and it contains Sikas
- 5:12the last Titan,
- 5:13>> [music]
- 5:13>> so they have a special bond. In Argos,
- 5:16Taras meets with his scientist, who has
- 5:18finished replicating a key. He puts it
- 5:20on his wrist and uses it to activate a
- 5:21machine remotely, saying he'll bring a
- 5:23bigger storm. The lights are turned on
- 5:25for a few seconds before the machine
- 5:26loses the connection and shuts down.
- 5:28Furious, Taras throws the scientist off
- 5:30the tower. Meanwhile, Dita opens a hole
- 5:32in the wall and pulls out a box he hid
- 5:34many years ago. He stares at the
- 5:36original machine key while having a
- 5:37vision of his younger self arriving on
- 5:39the island. 10 years pass and Anna and
- 5:41Neb are now in a romantic relationship.
- 5:43Neb deals with his visions every day,
- 5:44but he still doesn't know what they
- 5:46mean. He tells Anna that one vision is
- 5:48of her on Gaia wearing a red dress, so
- 5:50she replies by whispering a promise in
- 5:51his ear. Since this year the ban ends,
- 5:54Anna is practicing to join the race. Neb
- 5:56admits he's afraid of losing her and
- 5:57Dita asks him what he's seen in his
- 5:58[music] visions, but Neb refuses to
- 6:00answer. That night Neb sees Anna riding
- 6:02into the storm to avenge her father,
- 6:04which kills her.
- 6:05>> [music]
- 6:05>> A desperate Neb tries to return to the
- 6:07tree during a storm, but Dita stops him.
- 6:09One morning, the baroness returns to Fig
- 6:11and Dita spits on the floor when he sees
- 6:13her. He insists that Neb shouldn't ride,
- 6:15but the baroness thinks it's Neb's
- 6:16choice to make and gives him one year to
- 6:18decide if he wants her sponsorship. In
- 6:19the end Neb decides to join the race
- 6:21just to protect Anna and Nicola helps
- 6:23him work on the boat. In the meantime,
- 6:25all the people who were kicked off their
- 6:26islands and survived are now living in
- 6:27the landless sea. Their children were
- 6:29born in boats and have never stepped on
- 6:31actual ground. They can only watch as
- 6:33the machines keep going from island to
- 6:34island destroying the land without
- 6:36finding anything. After months of
- 6:37preparations, all the chosen riders are
- 6:39allowed to enter Argos for an
- 6:41orientation talk by Larry. They're
- 6:43reminded of the rules and the fact that
- 6:44compasses won't work near [music] the
- 6:45storm, not to mention they'll be
- 6:47fighting inertia. After the meeting,
- 6:49Anna convinces Neb to ride with her to
- 6:50the storm and they kiss to seal their
- 6:52promise.
- 6:52>> [music]
- 6:52>> At the same time Tarus chooses a mighty
- 6:54warrior to be a bomb head, which is the
- 6:56name of the riders who kill for the
- 6:57founders during races. Tarus tells him
- 7:00to start with the riders from Fig. In
- 7:02the afternoon, the race finally begins.
- 7:04Anna and Neb are so desperate to clean
- 7:06their island's name that they
- 7:07immediately take the first place. For
- 7:09the first few minutes the race goes
- 7:10normally, but soon bomb head guides his
- 7:12boat toward an opponent's vessel and
- 7:13destroys it. The race goes on normally
- 7:15again for a few more moments and Anna
- 7:17stays in first place. When they reach
- 7:19the final stretch, bomb head attacks
- 7:20again, but misses Anna because she's
- 7:22moving fast and he ends up destroying a
- 7:24different boat. When Anna sees an
- 7:25opening, she leaves the race and starts
- 7:27riding toward the storm. Both Neb and
- 7:29bomb head immediately follow her and as
- 7:31they approach the storm, hammerhead
- 7:32surprisingly joins them. A lightning
- 7:34bolt suddenly strikes hammerhead's boat
- 7:36and he disappears because he's actually
- 7:38a vision that only Neb is having. Anna
- 7:40is getting too close to the storm, so
- 7:41bomb head speeds up and crashes into her
- 7:43boat. Neb comes out of his vision too
- 7:45late and is devastated to watch his
- 7:46girlfriend drown. He jumps into the
- 7:48water and begins to swim toward her, but
- 7:50Bombhead rides past him to hit him. For
- 7:52a few seconds, Neb floats without
- 7:54control while seeing the vision of Anna
- 7:55in the red dress. At the same time,
- 7:57Taras is terrified to have a vision of
- 7:59Hammerhead appearing next to him. After
- 8:01the race, Neb is thrown into a cell.
- 8:03Overwhelmed with grief and guilt,
- 8:04[music] he has a breakdown on the floor
- 8:06and can't differentiate his visions from
- 8:07his memories. Larry visits Neb and
- 8:09shares that when he was younger, he
- 8:11agreed to be a Bombhead, but he also
- 8:12[clears throat] mysteriously says that
- 8:13his people never needed saving. Then Neb
- 8:15meets with the Baroness, who tells him a
- 8:17story. Many years ago, after the world
- 8:19drowned, the members of Operation Titan
- 8:21explored the oceans in search of hope
- 8:22for life. Eventually, they found this
- 8:24archipelago, where islanders believed
- 8:26they were protected by the blood of the
- 8:27goddess Gaia. The founders renamed it
- 8:29the element and founded Argos, a place
- 8:31where they could abuse the element to
- 8:33become immortal. Taras took the
- 8:34technology that was supposed to protect
- 8:36an endangered environment and instead
- 8:37used it to create the storm that kept
- 8:39the islands trapped. He then started to
- 8:41dig to have an endless amount of the
- 8:42element for himself, so the islands were
- 8:44getting crushed and drained. Psychis got
- 8:46tired of this and stole the key before
- 8:47running away. He couldn't cross the
- 8:49storm and ended up on Fig, where he
- 8:51adopted the name Dita and started a new
- 8:52life. After the story, [music] the
- 8:54Baroness gives Neb the compass she
- 8:55retrieved from Anna's body and sends him
- 8:57home. In Fig, Neb confronts Dita,
- 9:00calling him out for all the lies.
- 9:01>> [music]
- 9:01>> Dita says he did it to protect him, but
- 9:03Neb doesn't listen. Later, Neb buries a
- 9:05tree in Anna's name. Then he talks to
- 9:07Nikola, who [music] explains that Dita
- 9:09often disappeared but never told him
- 9:10anything. What Dita did teach him was
- 9:12how to be part of the storm. In its
- 9:14center, there's a dancing bolt that
- 9:15supposedly can take any person to the
- 9:17other side, but Nikola was never able to
- 9:19catch it. Because of his visions, Neb
- 9:21thinks Hammerhead did catch it and he
- 9:22wants to try, too. Nikola tells his
- 9:24father that Neb [music] is ready, so
- 9:26Dita gives him the key and teaches him
- 9:27about the phrase amor fati. Before
- 9:29leaving, Neb takes Anna's tree.
- 9:31Meanwhile, the Baroness warns Taras that
- 9:33crop production has been declining and
- 9:34hunger incites revolution. She's already
- 9:36taken [music] care of it, but Taras
- 9:38isn't happy about her undermining his
- 9:39authority. In Argos, Neb is waiting for
- 9:42the next race while playing with the
- 9:43key, only to realize that it's also a
- 9:45compass that points at the [music]
- 9:46Temple of the Founders. While thinking
- 9:48about possible plans, Neb notices Taras
- 9:50staring at him. Later, Nurse Maya helps
- 9:52Taras take a new dose of the element.
- 9:54Taras tries to be friendly with her and
- 9:55asks her to keep an eye on Neb.
- 9:57>> [music]
- 9:57>> In the meantime, Neb asks Larry to teach
- 9:59him how to catch lightning. They go out
- 10:00together on the boat and Larry guides
- 10:02Neb on how to use the speed accordingly.
- 10:04Neb suddenly has a vision of crashing
- 10:05his boat into Bomb Head, but thankfully
- 10:07he snaps out of it just in time to avoid
- 10:09crashing in reality. Larry tells him he
- 10:11needs to tame his fear or he'll never
- 10:12win. When Neb returns to the city, Maya
- 10:15looks at his old scars while they chat.
- 10:17>> [music]
- 10:17>> Neb casually shares that the woman he
- 10:18loves is in a tree in his room. Maya
- 10:20then takes him to the Temple and asks
- 10:22the priest to help him with his
- 10:23injuries, but they refuse [music]
- 10:24because they believe he's the one who
- 10:25will breach the storm. Neb notices a
- 10:27bunch of plants being drained for the
- 10:29element and decides to leave. Later on
- 10:31the street, Neb sees the red dress from
- 10:33his visions at a store. At that moment,
- 10:35when he bumps into Bomb Head and
- 10:36furiously grabs him by his shirt, eager
- 10:38for revenge. However, Bomb Head says
- 10:40they can only fight in the race and runs
- 10:41away. Neb immediately follows him and
- 10:43the chase has them running all over the
- 10:45city until they end up jumping into the
- 10:46[music] water. The men swim to the
- 10:48closest shore and Neb jumps on Bomb Head
- 10:50demanding an explanation. He holds him
- 10:52underwater several times until Bomb Head
- 10:53tells him that he promised Taras to
- 10:55protect the storm. Neb lets him live and
- 10:57swears to defeat him in the race.
- 10:58>> [music]
- 10:59>> Meanwhile, Maya tells Taras about Neb's
- 11:00tree and that Psykos is hiding on Fig.
- 11:03In his room, Neb is getting desperate to
- 11:05achieve his victory. After having
- 11:06another vision of Anna, he cuts her tree
- 11:08to access the element. Then he visits
- 11:10Larry to ask for his help with a plan.
- 11:12The following day, the next race finally
- 11:13begins. Bomb Head doesn't waste time and
- 11:16bumps into Neb's boat just [music] to
- 11:17taunt him, but everyone stays calm for
- 11:19the first stretch of the race. Neb is in
- 11:21second place by the time they reach the
- 11:22second stretch and Taras thinks he'll
- 11:24try to go to the storm, but nothing
- 11:25happens. [music]
- 11:26Bomb Head speeds up and takes a shortcut
- 11:28to catch up to Nebraska when the
- 11:29lightning bolts are close enough at
- 11:30last. Neb guides his boat to catch them
- 11:32just in time. The boost moves him ahead
- 11:35and he takes over first place. In just a
- 11:37few minutes, he wins the race. To
- 11:39everyone's shock, Neb suddenly turns the
- 11:41boat around and sails toward Bombhead,
- 11:42who refuses to move. At the last second,
- 11:44[music]
- 11:45Neb jumps off his boat, so only Bombhead
- 11:47dies in the resulting explosive crash.
- 11:49Nobody sees Neb jump, so it's assumed
- 11:51he's dead, too. The commentator
- 11:53announces that the Fig Islanders won't
- 11:54be allowed to come to Argos as
- 11:56punishment for Neb's actions. Meanwhile,
- 11:58Tarus makes his soldiers surround the
- 11:59Baroness, scolding her for not telling
- 12:01him that Psychos was on Fig. Soon, the
- 12:03radio announces that the army is going
- 12:05to Fig to search for the thief.
- 12:06Underwater, Neb meets with Larry, who
- 12:08provides him with diving equipment.
- 12:10Following the compass, Neb swims to the
- 12:12temple and uses a hidden underwater
- 12:13tunnel to get inside. To his shock, all
- 12:16the priests had already been knocked
- 12:17out. It turns out the Baroness and her
- 12:19men arrived first and took care of them.
- 12:21When Neb asks who the Hammerhead is, the
- 12:23Baroness removes her contact lenses and
- 12:24reveals she's been having visions, too.
- 12:26She guides Neb through his own vision,
- 12:28so he can finally see the truth.
- 12:29>> [music]
- 12:30>> He is Hammerhead. All along, the visions
- 12:32showed Neb in the future, so Dita and
- 12:34the Baroness spread the stories until he
- 12:35was ready to embrace his destiny.
- 12:37[music] With the boat and gear prepared
- 12:38by Larry, Neb leaves the temple under
- 12:40his new identity. When the Baroness
- 12:42returns to the main chamber, she [music]
- 12:43discovers that Tarus has killed all the
- 12:45other founders. An argument ensues, but
- 12:47Tarus gets distracted when he sees
- 12:49Hammerhead sailing away. Soon, crowds
- 12:51are gathering on the city walls to cheer
- 12:52for the legendary hero, but this also
- 12:54means that Bombhead and other soldiers
- 12:56start chasing after him. Once the enemy
- 12:58is close enough, Hammerhead captures
- 13:00lightning on his boat and uses Larry's
- 13:01modifications to shoot it back,
- 13:03destroying all his opponents' vessels
- 13:04with a single attack. At the same, the
- 13:07army opens fire to start destroying Fig
- 13:08Island. Dita watches the destruction as
- 13:10he whispers Amor Fati. Meanwhile,
- 13:12Hammerhead manages to enter the storm
- 13:14and captures any lightning bolt that
- 13:15gets too close. Not a single bolt
- 13:17manages to stop him, and soon he makes
- 13:19it to the other side. Tarus sees this on
- 13:21the radar and realizes his reign is
- 13:23over. On the other side, Hammerhead
- 13:25finds a large island and a building with
- 13:27a machine creating the storm. Using the
- 13:29original key, he turns off the device
- 13:31and the storm finally disappears after
- 13:32years of terror. As citizens celebrate
- 13:34all over Argos, Taurus says a more fatty
- 13:37before jumping to self-delete.
- 13:38Hammerhead admires the clean sky and
- 13:40remembers Anna's promise. [music] She'd
- 13:42wear the dress after the storm
- 13:43disappeared. Before leaving, he throws
- 13:45the liquid from her tree on the dry
- 13:46ground to reawaken it. A flashback
- 13:48reveals that the baroness retrieved
