Transcript
00:00The prisoners are sent to a high-tech prison where an AI has absolute control over their fate,
00:06determining whether they will earn their freedom or be condemned to a life of slavery.
00:11A man stands in a bar, looking at the photographs hanging on the wall.
00:16Suddenly, two men appear behind him and press their weapons against his back.
00:21A moment later, they pull the trigger.
00:23When he regains consciousness, he finds himself in a strange cell with no windows or doors,
00:31its wall made of bright panels.
00:33Before he can observe his surroundings, a voice interrupts him.
00:38He turns around to see a surveillance camera descending from the ceiling.
00:42The device introduces itself as Howard.
00:45Howard explains that his job is to monitor and help the prisoner, but he knows nothing beyond that.
00:51Now realizing that he has been arrested, the man demands to know what he is being charged with.
00:58However, Howard does not have access to that information.
01:02He repeats that his only purpose is to ensure the prisoner's well-being and offers him a selection of food and drink.
01:09The man refuses.
01:11Howard then suggests some exercise, and when the prisoner accepts a treadmill, it emerges from the wall.
01:18Frustrated, the man asks how long he will be kept here.
01:21The voice replies that he will remain in the cell until his case is processed, although it has no idea how long that will take.
01:29The man demands to speak with a human operator, but Howard informs him that it is a fully autonomous system.
01:35No one is in charge.
01:37As his frustration increases, the prisoner tries various ways to get answers, but Howard remains unhelpful.
01:43At some point, he enters a trance and remembers a day from his past, waking up in the morning, showering, typing a password into his computer, and retrieving a flash drive.
01:55He recalls having seen the news about the arrest of Fletcher May, the union leader.
02:00Then he feeds his dog, puts on his jacket, and leaves his house.
02:06Back in the cell, the man begs Howard to notify someone that he has been arrested.
02:11His friends and family have no idea where he is.
02:15Once again, he asks the robot for information, but Howard doesn't understand.
02:21Defeated, the prisoner finally asks for food, and as a bowl fills with mashed potatoes, he confides in his mechanical guardian that his dog is still at home, locked inside his apartment.
02:34No one would hear it bark if no one checked on it.
02:37The robot refuses to help.
02:40It is not programmed for that.
02:42The man, filled with anger, later finds himself falling into that same memory again.
02:47After leaving his apartment, he takes the subway to visit his father in the hospital.
02:54Later that night, he walks down a dark street, moving as if trying to stay out of sight.
02:59Back in the cell, he opens his eyes.
03:02Howard immediately descends from the ceiling.
03:05The man, thirsty, asks for running water.
03:08The robot obeys, fills a glass, and as he reaches for it, he notices a puddle on the floor and asks what has happened.
03:14Frank explains that they did not provide him with a bucket for the night.
03:19How, he responds, that in the future, such needs should be requested.
03:24His cell is equipped with a bathroom, and as soon as he says this, a door appears in the wall.
03:30Frank enters and finds a toilet, but the moment he does, the door slams shut behind him.
03:35A noise comes from the main camera.
03:38When Howard finally lets him out, the puddle is gone.
03:41Someone or something has cleaned it.
03:43The memory draws him back from the dark street.
03:47Frank enters a bustling cafe, talks with the barista, and orders a coffee.
03:52In the cell, he tastes the prison food, which is disgusting.
03:57Howard offers to adjust the flavor, but Frank sees no point.
04:01He starts testing the robot with different phrases, pushing its limits,
04:06but eventually accepts that he is speaking to a machine.
04:09Desperation overwhelms him.
04:11He slams his fists against the walls, shouting for them to let him out.
04:16The cycle continues.
04:18Rage, despair, hopelessness.
04:21In another trance, in his frustration, he lashes out at Howard,
04:25demanding that the robot stop talking to him entirely, but it is useless.
04:31Howard has not answered a single question.
04:33Finally, Frank collapses into a chair and decides at least to learn more about the machine.
04:40Howard explains what kind of hardware it is made of.
04:44Frank sarcastically expresses his delight that such expensive technology is being used to serve him food.
04:51He shares his thoughts with the robot, how not everything should be automated and some things should not be left in the hands of machines.
05:01Then the memory returns in the cafe.
05:04The barista tries to guess his name.
05:07After preparing his drink, she asks if he likes the photographs he has been looking at.
05:12She took them herself, though she never managed to turn her photography into a career.
05:18Then she takes his hand and finally guesses his name correctly.
05:23Frank is astonished.
05:25He looks down at his tag bearing the name Gabby.
05:28As he returns to the photographs, the realization hits him.
05:33Two men have appeared behind him and at any moment are about to pull the trigger in his cell.
05:39Frank carefully gets up from the bed, approaches the opposite wall and stares intently at the bright panels.
05:45He begins to realize that this is some kind of device, controlling his memories of the day he was arrested.
05:53Back in the cafe, talking with Gabby, he praises her photos and is completely confused by what is happening.
06:02She takes his hand again and with fear, guesses his name.
06:06He pulls her wrist away and asks her to stop, but two armed guards appear behind him once more.
06:12Back in his cell, catching his breath, he reflects aloud that he is seeing memories of the same day over and over again.
06:21He asks Howard what the shiny thing on the wall means, but Howard doesn't know and guesses that it is just ventilation.
06:29Resigned to the bland food, Frank decides to eat.
06:33Howard asks why he hasn't been given any additional information.
06:37Frank suggests that perhaps the person who created him is afraid that the robot might be hacked and he asks if Howard has worked with other prisoners.
06:48Howard replies that Frank is his first assignment.
06:51After a moment of reflection, Frank suggests that this might not be true.
06:56The memory of Howard might be erased and reset, so he does not remember any previous prisoner.
07:02That means that Howard himself is also a prisoner of the people.
07:08Then the computer recalls one of their previous conversations and asks,
07:12What did you mean when you said that not everything can be computerized?
07:16At first, Frank refuses to talk about it, but eventually he confesses about his father.
07:22His father died of a heart condition.
07:24When he fell ill, the doctors hooked him up to a machine that kept him alive for four years,
07:29living four years longer than he was supposed to.
07:33Frank does not consider this a gift of fate.
07:36His father had accepted death and was ready to go, but the machine took that right away from him.
07:42Everyone around celebrated, but no one considered what was really happening.
07:46His father had been a very strong man, and Frank had never seen him broken, but the illness changed everything.
07:53Frank is convinced that the alliance between humans and machines bodes no good.
07:57After hearing this, the robot concludes that everything is very interesting, and that it really wants to help.
08:05While they were talking, the robot encountered an error, and discovered that Frank had been brought here under protocol KBN-6.
08:14This means that he was sent back to where he came from.
08:17But that is impossible.
08:19There is an option to send a repair request to contact a coordinator, but that request will be rejected if nothing breaks over time.
08:28Frank prepares to destroy Howard at the last moment.
08:31The robot stops him and warns him of a problem.
08:35Since Howard knows what Frank is about to do, it is forced to activate the security system.
08:41However, it cannot explain what Frank is doing.
08:43Frank then suggests thinking of another plan and asks for a coffee.
08:49Meanwhile, while the computer is distracted, Frank delivers a powerful blow to the robot.
08:55Immediately after the security systems are activated, gas begins to fill the room, and Frank collapses, unconscious.
09:02At that moment, he sees images of himself lying on a table with his head in a bench vise, while someone injects him with a substance.
09:12Frank wakes up again in the cafe where Gabuda offers him coffee.
09:17Once again, she tries to guess his name, but Frank does not respond.
09:21He just wants to sit and be left alone.
09:24The girl calls him by his name and tells him he can stay as long as he wants.
09:29Frank is astonished.
09:31This time, she did not have to guess his name, but said it immediately.
09:35Gab replies that they already know each other, so there is no need for her to guess.
09:41He begins to argue, saying that they are relatives from his past dreams, but she will not remember that.
09:48Their conversation is interrupted by a customer, a man who orders another cup of coffee.
09:53At that moment, Frank notices a scanner and hides behind the counter.
09:58He does not want to be scanned again or be shot again.
10:02The girl is perplexed by his actions and tries to understand what is happening.
10:07He explains that he is not really there and that she does not exist at the moment.
10:12He is in a government facility where a neuroscanner is being used to extract his memories,
10:18trying to find evidence of a crime he did not commit.
10:21That is why everyone is in his mind and why they have spoken before.
10:25Most likely, the cafe scanner will malfunction, and he walks straight into a trap laid by government agents.
10:33After telling her all this, he asks her to leave him alone and let him sit in peace.
10:39Gabi smiles and says that this is the most unusual attempt to get free coffee she has ever heard.
10:46Later, they sit at a table drinking coffee and discussing their memories.
10:49The girl thinks that it is not the worst day either.
10:53She also asks when he plans to return to the bunker, but he does not know.
10:57He cannot control it, and he is very grateful for being allowed to stay in the cafe.
11:02Again and again, he relives the same day when he was shot while having coffee and talking with Gabi.
11:09Howard is concerned about Frank's condition, but he cannot respond.
11:13Once more, he falls into a trance, gets shot again, and once again tells the girl that he is only in his head.
11:22They dance in the cafe and in the cell, and yet again, two armed men come for him.
11:27But this time, Frankie and Gabi are the ones who attack first,
11:32seizing the agent's weapons and demanding that they explain why they came for him, though they remain silent.
11:37Frank then asks Gabi to let them go.
11:41After all, everything is happening in his head, so they have no answer.
11:45She reassures him that they will solve everything no matter how long it takes.
11:50Frank finds himself back in the cell after using the treadmill.
11:54He goes to the shower and talks with Howard,
11:57telling the robot that he has plans for the evening with Gabi.
12:01During their conversation, Frank notices that the computer is clearly malfunctioning.
12:05It is broken.
12:06After that, he falls into another trance.
12:10Now he is at home with a waiter nearby.
12:13The prisoner tells him that his guard shut down again for 12 seconds,
12:17at the same time his cycle was coming to an end,
12:20which means that soon there will be a restart.
12:23He can't wait any longer.
12:25The next malfunctions will begin again in a few months.
12:28The girl is upset by the news, but accepts his decision.
12:31After grabbing a USB memory stick from the computer,
12:34he heads to his father's house and then to the cafe.
12:38Gab suggests that he wait a few more months.
12:41Maybe they will come up with a better plan, but Frank does not want to wait.
12:45He is not sure he can handle another three months.
12:48The waiter asks him for a favor.
12:49If he manages to free himself, he should find his true self.
12:54After this, she makes him a coffee and kisses him.
12:58But then two armed men appear behind him and shoot Frank in the back.
13:02Back in the cell, Frank wakes up and gets dressed.
13:05Howard offers to make him coffee and notices that Frank is walking in full form.
13:12Apparently, the cell is cold and Frank can raise the temperature,
13:16but he refuses and asks for coffee with cream.
13:19A minute later, Frank realizes that the robot is malfunctioning,
13:23which means that it is time to act.
13:25He grabs a pillowcase, puts it over Howard's head,
13:29and waits for the security systems to activate.
13:33Once the robot is back online,
13:35he calls for help and another robot enters the cell.
13:38Frank attacks it and escapes from the cell,
13:41navigating through the corridors.
13:43Finding no one,
13:44he successfully exits through a hatch to the surface.
13:48After looking around,
13:49he realizes that he is in the middle of a desert.
13:52In the distance, a wind farm appears,
13:55and he decides to head towards it.
13:57However, when he arrives,
13:59he finds no one there.
14:01Continuing his journey,
14:03he reaches a road and finds a gas station.
14:06When he enters the store,
14:07he immediately searches for water and drinks it eagerly.
14:11Turning around,
14:12he notices photos of a cafe on the wall.
14:16He is astonished and can't believe what he sees.
14:18Suddenly, he finds himself back in his cell.
14:22Desperate and horrified,
14:24he sits in a chair,
14:25reliving the same day once again.
14:28Life is slipping away from his eyes.
14:31Howard offers coffee or food,
14:33but the man says that it is all over.
14:36If the robot does not want Frank to die,
14:38it must let him go,
14:39but it cannot because it is not authorized to do so.
14:43The man tries to convince the computer that he can,
14:46confessing that he knows why he is here.
14:49He was part of a union
14:51and wrote a virus intended to destroy the entire system.
14:55He knew they were after him,
14:57but he couldn't let them read his memories.
15:00For if they did,
15:01he would be trapped in prison forever.
15:04He knows what the thing on the wall is
15:06and how to fool it.
15:07And he also tells Howard that it is broken
15:10and that no one will come to fix it
15:12because there are no more people here.
15:14He asks the robot to bypass the protocol,
15:18but it cannot.
15:19The man becomes angry,
15:21pleading and shouting,
15:22but it is useless.
15:24Howard offers to play music
15:25and Frank accepts.
15:27The man falls into a trance
15:29and at the same time
15:31fashions a rope out of a piece of cloth,
15:33goes to a bar and sits in a chair.
15:36While he is in his cell,
15:37he throws the rope over his head,
15:40climbs onto the chair
15:41and hangs himself.
15:43Gabby urges him to wake up,
15:45but he does not hear her.
15:47The cell's security systems activate
15:49and a robot comes to help,
15:51cutting the rope with a laser.
15:53The man falls to the floor.
15:56Taking advantage of the open door,
15:58he runs out of the cell
15:59and calls for Howard's help.
16:01Seeing that his protege is in danger,
16:03the robot closes the cell doors,
16:06leaving Frank inside.
16:08Looking around,
16:08Frank finds the server room,
16:11there are no people
16:11and the cameras are off.
16:14After examining everything,
16:15he tells Howard
16:16that he will not be able to fix it.
16:19The robot asks if he will return,
16:21but Frank says no.
16:23Sitting in front of the monitors,
16:25the man asks what LSO means
16:27and again inquires where Howard is from.
16:30Howard repeats
16:31that he is a life support operator,
16:33born in Austin
16:34but raised near Seattle.
16:35While speaking,
16:37Frank remembers sitting next
16:39to his dying father's bed,
16:41turning off the entire system.
16:43He leaves the bunker,
16:44goes to the surface
16:45and finds himself
16:46in the middle of snow-covered mountains
16:48with no one in sight,
16:50hungry and freezing.
16:52He keeps walking,
16:53following his instincts,
16:55until he reaches a giant pine tree.
16:58Looking at it,
16:58he realizes that it is the location
17:00of the photograph of the cafe.
17:03Collapsing to his knees,
17:05he closes his eyes
17:06and when he opens them again,
17:08he finds two tourists
17:10standing beside him.
17:12News reports state
17:13that a man was found by tourists
17:15in the mountains of Utah.
17:17He is the sole survivor
17:19of the ASN detention center
17:21that was abandoned by the military
17:23about two years ago
17:24during a liberation.
17:26His life was sustained
17:27by a computerized security system
17:30designed for his imprisonment.
17:32The energy came from wind farms
17:34until the reserves were exhausted.
17:37More than 300 prisoners
17:39were found dead
17:40and he is the only one who survived.
17:43Secretary of State Becker
17:45commented that this serves
17:46as a harsh and tragic reminder
17:48of the political regime
17:50that violated
17:51the most sacred human rights.
17:53Meanwhile,
17:54Frank arrives at the cafe
17:55from his memories.
17:56There he sees Gabby
17:58who begins to tell him
18:00about the photo once again
18:01but he already knows everything.
18:04Throwing the USB memory stick
18:06in the trash,
18:07he sits at a table
18:08and waits for his coffee.
18:10When the girl brings him the drink,
18:12he thanks her
18:13and calls her by her name.
18:15She is surprised
18:16and informs him
18:17that her real name is Malene
18:19and that the last time she was here
18:21she wore a tag
18:22with her colleague's name.
18:24He is delighted to meet her
18:25and decides to guess her name
18:27while at the same time
18:29a camera appears on the ceiling
18:30identical in appearance to Howard.
