Are we sure this is the right school?
This is a school and this is Galeno Street.
I guess this is the right school, what do you think?
Ok, let's go then!
Do you prefer to go back home?
Ok, ok, but
why don't you get that flashlight out of your backpack?
I don't want to fell the breath of one of those creatures on my neck, you know...
Hey, can you see that?
Hey little girl, come on!
No, please don't go!
Where is she going?
- What the hell are they?
Damn, I knew it would have happened!
Come on, let's go!
Move, ***, I'll shoot them down! - No, please, don't shoot!
Come on, get in!
And you, girl, put that gun away!
Who are they? - Don't have a clue,
but they don't look like the other ones...
We need to talk.
- Go on if you want to... Well, what can I say?
We have been here since Wednesday,
it's 13 of us...
Before you got here, of course.
Let me see...
Right after the first news about what was going on in India, Mexico,
China, North Africa, as a physician
I tried to understand what was happening.
It looks like this is just beacuse of those 'Termostat' pills.
The pharmaceutical industry
has been into pharmacogenetics for years now.
That's a way to change the DNA code in order
to heal a genetic disorder.
As I can understand, this 'Termostat' cure
was supposed to provide the population a stronger endurance
to the heat of the last months.
But something went wrong.
Using controlled viruses is typical in pharmacogenetics.
They carry the DNA code and
they can change their own DNA
in order to adapt themselves and breed again.
Think of a flu virus: it can change itself up to four times!
So you can imagine what can that 'Termostat' virus do...
You know the rest of the story!
- How did you get to this school? I was on one of those buses carrying people
to the health station of Geneva.
I had been chosen to be saved.
But suddenly, not far from here, someone on the bus began to show
some early symptoms.
And then the chaos took over:
everybody was scared
and the soldiers started to shoot them down.
We got out somehow and run away,
Some of us got killed,
while we ended up here in this school.
- But we haven't showed any symptom so far.
Some of us have shown some reactions to the pills, but some others have in a different way...
I think you're wrong. All of us have contracted the virus.
Despite the very high temperature of the last months you feel cold, don't you?
Every person
shows different symptoms
which can be virtually unpredictable. Every single DNA code provides
a different feedback to the virus.
Carla is in coma right now,
while other people...
The just died.
What's going on?
Come here! Take a look at her!
Who are they?
- What's happening? She said she can help us...
You must go back to your sister, Mattia.
- My sister has been taken way by those soldiers. She must be 'sleeping' now.
Go back to your flat and you'll meet her again.
