Cognition (2020) - full transcript
We journey through the symbolic landscape of the subconscious mind as we follow the story of an unbreakable bond between father and son. A bond that transcends SPACE AND TIME.
PLANET VEGA
How many worlds are there?
More than you and me could ever imagine.
Wow!
I used to stand here with my own father.
I used to dream...
That someday, you would travel
to those distance worlds,
but you never did.
- No.
Father, you´re always repeating that story.
I´ve heard this story so many times.
When was the last time
you´ve heard the story?
You always finish it with:
¨Perhaps it´s not my destiny.¨
You know your mother used to say:
¨We die of thirst just before
an oasis appears on the horizon¨
So Abner, if you ever get lost,
in the desert, what should you do?
It´s impossible to get lost in the desert
because the stars are looming
every grain of sand under our feet.
That´s right.
And if you have a dream...
follow it!
Otherwise it stays in your heart
rest of your days.
It´s not too late.
You can still get there.
We´ll get there together.
You and me.
You and me.
There´s a storm coming. Go on, go on!
Breath in
Breath, breath, breath!
Breath with me
Deep breath, deep breath
Run, Abner!
Bring him!
Father!
Don´t be afraid.
14 YEARS LATER PLANET VEGA
EMPIRE QUARTERS
Only those who have the courage to lead
themselves, deserves to lead the others.
Counselor believe
you have owned this honor.
She waits you.
I remember the day
you first came to us, young Abner.
Timid little boy.
Barely mightier than his own shadow,
but what a mind!
A mind so powerful, so full of promise.
Civilizations can only be imagined
in the minds of great men,
but the seed that fosters such greatness
it is found first in gifted children.
Every child who comes to us
is immeasurably special.
You, Abner.
You were like a rare jewel.
I want to know something.
Do you think about the past?
The past no longer exists.
You have given me
something greater than the past.
You have given me a future.
We create the future day by day.
Together.
A team was gonna symboled on this planet,
and you will lead them.
The children you find here
will have given the rare opportunity
of using their gifts
for a higher purpose.
There´s nothing more powerful
than the untapped mind of a child.
If children are the seeds...
and we are the harvest.
And if you have a dream, follow it.
Dad!
Father!
No!
As an agent, I´m a symbol,
A symbol of its cause.
I´ll fight with honor and valor.
I´ll sacrifice and follow protocol,
I´ll show no mercy to the targeted
No emotions to the evicted.
The Empire is my very Existence.
Without it, I´m nothing.

You´re having trouble
thinking clearly, yes.
The mind can be a precarious thing.
It can either serve or deceive.
Sometimes it can feel like
your thoughts are not your owns.
Wait!
I can´t remember my mother´s face.
And yet, deep down inside,
you know that they are.
Isn´t that right, Agent?
Agent Abner, you will follow protocol
Don´t be afraid.

You don´t have to do, Abner.
Put it down.
Put it down.

Agent Abner,
why have you broken protocol?
Remember the oath you have made, agent
to a family that gave you everything.

You and I...
One day those stars
will be within our grasp
And we will go there beyond these...
... twilight moons..
...to a new horizon.
You and me.
Breath in.
