The Visitor from the Future (Le visiteur du futur)

Turn back!

Meltdown: Reactor 3.

Evacuate personnel.

Come on, come on, come on!

- We gotta go! - Don't panic, I got this.

Look, you just push here.

And we're screwed.

Come on.

Push it!

It's jammed.

It's an old 2022 plant.

Some analog program must reboot the system.

Hey look!

Shit.

Yellow or blue?

My instinct says blue.

- Why blue? - It's reassuring.

It isn't, yellow is! It's chicks, the sun, life.

Depends how you look at it.

Do not push the...

What's that?

This tramp appeared out of nowhere.

He's telling us something.

I can't hear you, sir.

C0u|d destroy the human race.

You're too far away.

What if I scream?

Ice cream?

Call him over.

Come help out.

Fuck!

Run, run, run!

Jeez, what a great start!

- Hear me now? - That's better!

I was saying... Don't push the blue button!

Why not?

You didn't hear a thing?

The plant will blow up!

Are you sure?

Yes! I'm from the future.

What did he say?

"Don't push blue, I'm from the future."

Let's quiz him to see if he's telling the truth.

We don't have time.

- OK, we believe you. - Cool. I have a job usually.

So we push yellow?

Read the instructions.

It's all Chinese to us.

Aren't you engineers?

Yes, but it's in Chinese!

Show him.

I'll be back.

He vanished as if by magic.

And he's back with a guy.

This is Mr. Wong.

Show him the card.

What's that?

Speak into this.

Machine translation.

That thing is in Cantonese. I speak Mandarin.

I'll be back.

We're going to die.

We can trust him, he's from the future.

Remember me?

I saw you a second ago.

A second for you! I spent six months learning Mandarin.

Cantonese.

I'll be back.

Yep, we're going to die.

- Done! - Learnt Cantonese?

I went into the past and spoke to the plant's designer.

And?

It's the yellow button.

- Sure? - Go on!

Shit!

Time Patrol. You're under arrest!

Hurry UP!

Two guys are here, the tramp's vanished.

I'm lost.

Yellow button?

No, don't!

The blue will blow us sky high.

Ignore the tramp. It's a trap!

The guy's a terrorist.

The Time Patrol is here to help!

What were you planning to do?

We wanted - well, I did - to push the blue button.

There you go! Blue is reassuring.

Reassuring! That's just what I said.

Great!

- So I push it? - Not yet!

Why?

Wait till we've gone, OK?

That's weird.

It's the protocol.

What are we waiting for exactly?

A clear signal from us. Just wait.

Wait, OK?

OK, hit the blue button.

Great, guys!

Overload imminent!

Awesome!

THE VISITOR FROM THE FUTURE

Axomako cloud crosses Paris area for fifth time

Explosion of Axomako's historic nuclear power plant

Numerous victims. Who is to blame?

Deputy Alibert green lights Axomako nuclear plant

Right, I think I've covered everything. Any questions?

Thank you, Mr. Alibert.

Will the plant benefit the region?

It will have significant benefits.

It will provide employment.

Remember that nuclear is the best clean energy source.

So if there's global warming, it won't be our fault!

Sir?

What is your relationship with Axamako?

I like Axomako. They make good plants.

They have proved that in China

and will soon do so here.

Any more questions? Don't be shy.

Go ahead.

Mr. Alibert!

Why does Axomako use obsolete technology in its new plants?

The technology is not obsolete, and you're not a journalist.

How did you get in?

In 70 years' time, the technology will be 100 years old.

It's a huge risk, isn't it?

I disagree.

It's not a risk.

Over the next 100 years, we'll find solutions.

Life will be good.

And we'll go to the bakery by jet pack!

That'll be so cool!

Mr. Alibert!

Do you care about the planet?

Young lady,

I care about my region, and my region is on the planet...

so I care about my planet.

Thank you.

Have a good afternoon.

Film me.

Don't touch her!

Sit down!

- Did you get that? - Do it again.

I said to leave her alone!

Goodbye.

Charlie, stop!

Stop that!

I'm gonna smash your face in!

The bastard's pulling my hair!

Film him!

Good job, guys!

It wasn't that bad. Lucien filmed the whole thing.

They took his camera.

Yeah, but I removed the SD card

and shoved it up my ass!

- You're a genius. - Sure am!

I don't want to post it. Getting arrested wasn't the plan.

You can't be serious! Everyone will talk about us.

I want them to talk about the plant.

Only the message counts.

A message needs a face. Otherwise we won't be heard.

- Charlie's too ugly. - Gratuitous!

I do the filming, so I can't. That leaves you.

What's the plan?

The best is for you to go to jail.

Perfect!

What?

Hunger strikes are effective too. Just go on hunger strike.

What will you do?

Launch a hashtag campaign. You know, #FreeA|ice

or #SaveA|ice. I can't decide which.

I get the short straw, huh?

He stuck an SD card up his ass.

64GB it was too!

I refuse to be your spokesperson, martyr or whatever.

I'll fight for the cause, but I'm nobody.

What a pain.

Your father's here.

Come on, let's go.

- You drink too much. - That's why I have a driver.

- Shall I drop Alice home? - My place, Fabio.

You can sleep in your old room.

If you say so.

Interesting friends you have.

They're not my friends.

I met them on a forum.

Internet!

Don't believe everything you read.

Give me a break.

Everybody knows Axomako builds shoddy plants.

They're hiring you when your term's up.

It's classic, it's called...

A "revolting" door.

That's it.

How about some music?

Look, Alice,

I'm concerned about your future.

- I'm doing fine. - With whose money?

The rebel lets me pay her rent!
