[LAUGHING]
[SCREAMS]
No.
[MAN SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE]
[LAUGHS]
WOMAN: Alba, Alba,
my sweet child.
This is my daughter, Alba.
I adopted her when she
was a little baby.
My constant nightmare
is that she cannot breathe.
[WATER RUNNING]
She sometimes sleeps
with me.
She wants to protect me
from my nightmares.
Dad? Are there not food rations
for all of us?
This is ridiculous,
for God's sake.
-We just need to be patient.
-But this is a national crisis.
All the plants in the world are
dying, and nobody knows why.
What is like for you to start
this highly publicized
collaboration with the most
powerful man in the world,
in the midst
of this global crisis?
It is extremely challenging.
I'm home.
WOMAN: California,
Christmas Eve,
Sorry I'm late!
Alba's been waiting, watching
the Sonya Antonov interview.
Alba?
He is the only hope
for our planet.
They say he's a genius.
Yes.
Hi, Mom.
Hey.
Yes, with all my heart.
So you were wrong
to blame him before?
No...
Well, he's supporting my,
my work right now
and this is
the most important thing.
You fought against
engineering life,
and now you are working
hand and hand with him?
When the world population
goes from six to ten billion
people overnight,
engineered food is a god--
Listen, he tried to help
all the world,
but something went
terribly wrong.
and now, everything he's been
working for can disappear
if I don't do something.
But what can you do?
It's inevitable, it says it
in the Book.
What book?
The Bible.
It says right there,
the last chapter.
Alba's obsession with religion
and Sonya Antonov are the two
big mysteries of my life.
Maybe, but we're all starving, and the food has quickly
disappeared from our tables
and we're all living on
small rations now.
Dr. Cera...
do you believe in God?
I don't.
I can't help but ask you,
it's about Alba.
Christ will forgive us,
and he will help us...
but if we love one another.
It's the only way.
You have to believe.
You have to have faith.
You have to seek salvation...
but only if we love one another.
Hello, Mister Preacher.
How are you today?
Hey, Alba.
Well, I am just preaching away,
as usual.
Alba, Alba.
What are you doing talking to
this man?
And, he knows your name?
Yeah, we talk every day.
When I stop by on my way back
from school.
Serghey likes him, too.
He's a very nice man.
Hi. I'm John.
And you are the world-famous
scientist Dr. Beatrix Cera.
Did you have to tell him
my name?
Look it, I am sorry Doctor. No.
Alba and I only speak
about the Lord.
I've seen your picture
on all the magazine covers
and in all the news stories.
Everybody knows who you are.
My mother's going to speak
at the submit tomorrow.
I heard.
So you're the "New Hope"?
Well, nobody wanted
to listen before,
but tomorrow they will
and everything will change.
I know. True hope has been lost.
Faith, only prayer can save us.
Or science.
You are a fighter, Doctor.
However, above it all--
Above it all, man shall succeed.
I'm sorry, Mr. John,
the Preacher,
but I don't have time for a
religious debate.
We have to go home now.
-ALBA: Goodbye.
-Goodbye. Thank you.
[♪♪♪♪♪]
Sweetheart. Bread.
Thank you, sir.
Have a Merry Christmas.
Have a Merry Christmas.
-Hi, John.
-Hi.
This looks wonderful.
Hey, John. Thank you.
[♪♪♪♪♪]
John, we're out of food,
and the line outside
is getting longer.
Well, um, go talk to Larry at
the market. He'll give you more.
I have to leave soon myself.
Are you going to
be back for the mass?
I'll try.
CROWD:
No, no, GMO! No, no, GMO!
MAN: All right, here she comes!
Let's go, let's go.
[REPORTERS CLAMORING]
CROWD:
No, no, GMO! No, no, GMO!
No, no, GMO! No, no, GMO!
No, no, GMO! No, no, GMO!
No, no, GMO! No, no, GMO!
World-renown etymologist
Dr. Beatrix Cera arrives...
Does this mean I'm gonna
get my sushi this year?
Dude, shut up! It's starting.
...genetically engineered foods.
New World Genetics
called this emergency summit
to combat the international
food crisis.
Misseur Doctor, Beatrix Cera...
[speaking Japanese]
New World Genetics Laboratory.
[SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE]
[SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE]
There's no way we're
getting in there.
I'm going to find another way.
No, no, GMO! No, no...
Dr. Cera will explain why
all the vegetation
on the planet is dying.
My dear people,
thank you for being here.
The leaders of the world,
thank you for being here,
as well.
Today is the biggest day
in our history,
and we're all here
to share it together...
as one big family of our
beloved Earth.
I am going to introduce you to
the most dedicated
and pertinent scientist
of all times.
Dr. Beatrix Cera is going
to explain the situation
to you all.
Please let's give a big round
of applause
for Dr. Beatrix Cera.
[APPLAUSE]
Thank you, United Nations.
New World Genetics has started
to engineer the food
in order to meet the needs
of a fast-growing population
worldwide.
New World Genetics has created
better food.
Food for everybody.
But during the process,
a very unfortunate event
has occurred.
The change in the DNA sequence
of the newer generations
of plants,
has triggered a self-defense
mechanism
and, now, the plants are
attacking the foreign gene.
Meaning, that they actually
began to self-destruct.
This year's harvest
of wheat, corn,
rice and soy has died...
unexpectedly.
The honey bees,
which account for 80%
of our world pollinators
have been
spreading the affected pollen
from the genetically
modified plants...
to all of the rest.
And because the entire
vegetation of our planet
functions like one unit,
like one single organism...
now all the plants
around the globe...
are killing their seeds.
Soon, there will be no more
fruit in the world.
There will be no more food
to feed the animals.
[CROWD CHANTING]
You made it.
No one else is here, right.
The mob is insane.
All of the reporters.
Everybody, all of them.
She's going to
speak today, okay?
I saw her escorted
by armed soldiers.
It's going to be
one hell of a day.
Let's go.
Stop. You need to back off now.
-Can I just talk to you?
-It's okay. It's okay.
Can you let me in please?
Come on, important day.
No, no more reporters.
Oh, come on, one more reporter.
They won't notice.
It's extremely late.
It has already started.
There will be no empty seats.
You don't have clearance.
I'd most likely lose my job and
my food rations. So no.
Wait, how about this
for clearance, hm?
-Let's go. Follow me.
-Thank you.
We do, however, have
federal food reserves
that will last us
maybe three months.
[ARGUING]
Everybody, please,
silence.
Dr. Cera is just
giving you some facts.
But, she's got
the solution, too.
Before all the bees perished,
Dr. Cera managed to save a few
healthy bee eggs.
And she's going to clone them
into special bees.
The honey bees have this anomaly
that is a gift, actually.
It is called thelytoky.
It is a type of parthenogenesis
in which females
are produced from
unfertilized eggs.
The social Hymenoptera can
naturally clone themselves.
The gene that I have isolated.
Our scientist will transfer
this new gene in all
the patented New World Genetics
seeds and create new plants.
Immortal plants.
And once humans and animals
are fed our new food,
the new gene will make
its way through
the human and animal DNA.
I call it the Immortality Gene.
I am working on transferring it
to my new population of bees,
so their cells will begin to
clone automatically.
And make us all...
immortal.
World leaders, we need you
to sign my pact
and become a part of
the New World Genetics
Survival Program.
We need your help.
I would like to introduce you to
the Nobel Prize Laureate
for Medicine...
the man behind the cure
for cancer.
He agreed to be here today,
in an effort to save the world.
Please, ladies and gentlemen,
let's give a big round
of applause
for Dr. John Zachary.
Thank you, friend of the world.
And thank you, Dr. Cera.
What you say is true.
It has begun...
the Apocalypse.
But do you people think that it
started with companies like
New World Genetics
altering of life?
With the pollution?
The pesticides?
No.
It started a long time ago.
It started when we told God
that we don't need Him anymore
and we welcomed in
the Other One.
And he became our new resident,
our resident evil.
And it's true, we conquered the
plague that is cancer.
But a new disease will arise...
deadlier...
stronger...
I mean do you think if we
created immortal life,
that we, as human beings,
will become kinder?
That we will become more
generous?
No.
You will be dead in immortality
because your soul will belong
to the Other One.
Is it too late? No.
But we must humble our backs
and beg for forgiveness.
We must ask our Christ to come
down to save us.
We must ask Christ, Our Lord,
to come an evict our
new resident
from our minds
and from our hearts.
We must surrender to prayer
and to faith.
That is only way we will
survive.
That is the only way
to be immortal.
Love is immortal.
Christ is love.
Love one another.
Love one another,
now and forever
and you will survive
the end of times.
Merry Christmas,
children of God.
Hello, Doctor.
Hello.
You are the crazy billionaire
that gave
his fortune away
and left the world?
And now, you're preaching on
the corner of my street...
about paradise.
About penitence.
So you really think your Christ
will come from the sky
and save you
because you repent.
I know that Christ
will come back,
and only those that repent
will be saved.
You obviously understand that
Dr. Zachary speaks
metaphorically.
Yes, we are at
the end of times.
But we're not here to
acknowledge our extinction...
but to unveil the elixir...
for eternal life.
-John, John.
-Yes.
I want to ask you something.
Sure.
People listen to you.
What do you tell those who
don't care about anything
you said in there?
Jesus, now the joke
of trendy people,
was, is, and always
has been love.
I guess that is what I would
tell them.
What about those
that reject Him?
If there was anything
else to say,
I guess it would be
"That it's never too late".
Have a good evening.
We will not perish...
but transform.
We will become stronger and
more resilient than ever.
We have already conquered
the Earth.
Now, we will conquer all death.
Hi.
Hi.
Dr. Cera, that was a powerful
speech.
Have you known Dr. Zachary
for a while?
I know him.
He's my best friend.
-Ah.
-It is so strange.
He used to be a force of nature
and now...
Now?
Now, he's homeless.
He's preaching on the corner
of our street about love.
It's what Jesus has taught us,
to give love.
Well, I never met the Doctor.
I only met the homeless man.
Hmmm.
Excuse me.
May I have a moment
alone with Dr. Cera, please?
Oh, yeah. Sure.
Thank you.
Wow, you were amazing.
Why did you let him speak?
Yes, the world needs
to hear his crazy theories
before they doubt him.
Why would they doubt him?
He has a Nobel Prize
for curing cancer!
He's been feeding all the
homeless people in the country.
[LAUGHING]
While preaching to
them from under a bridge.
He's preaching about love
to people that forgot
what it is like to be loved.
And tomorrow, his money won't
have much to buy,
and love doesn't feed
their bellies.
But our new food will.
We will feed the homeless,
and they will love us back.
Will they love him then? No.
They will hate him for his
annoying noise
about repentance and hell.
[SIGHS]
Let's go celebrate.
All right?
You and I...
we will save the world.
Your part is waiting
for you.
Dr. Beatrix Cera
will create the immortal bee,
from there, she will open
a path to create
the immortal plants
and food crops.
Humanity will thrive
and soon conquer death.
We dare you, Apocalypse.
The new human being
is not afraid.
SONYA: The Nobel Prize
Laureate, Dr. John Zachary,
has left the building,
after casting his Apocalyptic
words on humanity.
He was not available
for an interview,
but we're hoping to locate him
and learn more about how
he's planning on
applying love today
on the people that soon will
start killing for food.
This is Sonya Antonov
with today's news.
MAN SINGING: Glory of Christ
You have tasted
The Fountain
Of Immortality
Receive the Body
Of Christ.
Taste the Fountain
Of Immortality
You have...
I didn't think you'd show up.
But I did.
You did, thank you.
Don't.
We will still win this.
He will leave you alone
in the world.
He won't help you save her.
His will be done.
You will deny his name
in front of me.
Even if I have to die for Him...
I will never deny Him.
And we didn't make it to church.
No, sweetie, I'm sorry.
We didn't.
We never make it.
Anyways, I want to give these
presents to the homeless
children.
Do you mind?
No, honey, of course
I don't mind.
But I'll keep this.
Mom, can I ask you something?
Since when do you need my
permission.
This is serious.
Shoot it.
Well, you said today that you
are going to create
the immortal bee.
Yeah.
But, God created the bee.
Well, apparently, He didn't do
the best job.
But His creation is perfect.
Alba.
We live in an age, now, where
we can create life ourselves.
But Mom, what about God?
What about Him?
Oh, I'm sorry, sweetie.
Come over here.
I'm so sorry.
Oh, I'm so, so sorry.
Listen.
I didn't grow up
learning about God.
I grew up learning
about the man
and his accomplishments.
And, I became a scientist.
And now only scientists
can save the world
[KNOCK ON DOOR]
I'm sorry.
I saw the lights were still on.
And we were about
to turn them off.
-Alba.
-That's all right.
I wanted to tell you
before you saw it on TV.
All the leaders of the world
signed the pact.
That's it.
I'm ruling the world
as of today.
Over the President?
Over the President.
Without me, the world will
collapse. With me...
The world will
become immortal.
[SCOFFS]
Alba...
I'm sorry. She's just a kid.
Yes, just a kid.
Alba might come back.
I am...
I, I understand.
Maybe you should get some rest.
-Yes.
-These are for you.
Have a good night.
[SIGH]
[NO AUDIBLE DIALOGUE]
[CRYING]
Mommy? Mommy.
It's okay. I'm here.
You're having a nightmare.
Oh, oh, baby.
You know how much I love you,
don't you?
I know, Mommy.
Merry Christmas, Mr. Serghey.
Merry Christmas to you, too,
Miss Alba.
Merry Christmas,
Madame Dr. Cera.
Hi, Serghey. Sorry we're late.
I got a present for you.
Good for protection,
the mother of Jesus.
It will help you
in case of illness.
-Makes miracles.
-What's that?
It's an icon.
Oh, Serghey, I always thought
you were an old communist.
Sorry, Madame, but I thought
Alba likes it.
It's from my mother.
It helps you in case of illness.
It just heals.
-Thank you, years of medicine.
-Can I keep it, Mom?
You can, as long as
you take your antibiotics.
when you're sick.
-Okay, let's go.
-Okay--
Wait, um...
Did that man, Mr. John,
tell you where his church was?
Yes, Mommy. Thank you.
I love you, Mommy.
It's called the Holy Trinity.
Oh, I know where it is.
They give lunch and shelter
to all of the town's
homeless people, so let's go.
Well, Alba has some presents
for the children.
-Oh.
-Can you help her?
Sure, let's go.
-Merry Christmas.
-Merry Christmas.
-Merry Christmas.
-Merry Christmas.
Here. Thank you.
Merry Christmas.
God bless you.
Everybody is gone.
You may go inside.
Mass is over,
and you may pray in silence.
Miss Alba.
Come to me, please.
Stay with me.
Put your fingers together
like this.
Up, down, right, ...
What are you doing?
Praying.
-Our Father, who art in Heaven
-Our Father, who art in Heaven
Hallowed be thy name,
thy Kingdom come...
Hallowed be thy name,
thy Kingdom come...
You came.
[CHUCKLES]
Oh, Alba wanted to bring her
presents here for the children.
Thank you.
We should go.
Dr. Cera.
Call me Beatrix.
Beatrix, okay.
You have something
you want to ask me.
It's just that I can't stop
thinking...
Yes?
About you.
How, how, how can you donate
billions of dollars...
and be just...
Poor?
Yeah. Be left with nothing.
How are you going to help
people now?
Well, it's simple really.
I talk to them.
I hope to teach them.
So what do you think will
happen?
They will become better.
They will love one another.
And that they will believe
in Christ.
Oh, you really believe
that your Christ will come
and judge all of us.
Yes, and soon.
"Behold, I come quickly
and my reward is with me.
I render all men according to
their own work.
I am the Alpha and Omega,
the first and last...
-the beginning and the end."
-[LAUGHS]
I'll make that bee,
so I'll make sure your God
doesn't have to show up.
-Beatrix?
-Yes?
W-Why are you so angry?
Oh, I thought you were a
preacher, not a shrink.
Well, I sensed it.
I didn't mean to upset you.
You have Alba. She adores you.
The world adores you.
You should be happy.
You don't know my life.
You don't know what I've
been through
I know you've been
through a lot.
That's why you reject God.
Hi, Mr. John, so happy we're
meeting here today.
Even if the mass has ended.
I am so glad that you came, and
I wish you a Merry Christmas.
You, too, Mr. John.
I have something for you.
I know you'll like this.
It is my Christmas gift to you.
Thank you. Thank you.
We should go now.
It's really late.
I hope to see you soon,
Beatrix.
Ma'am, we gotta go right now.
-What's going on?
-We gotta go.
-We gotta go now.
-Alba, come on.
-Come on, come on.
-Serghey, come on.
-Just go along!
-Go.
Please get in.
We can't just leave.
What about the others, my work,
my files?
It's been shipped.
Please get in.
Dr. Cera,
Colonel Krewiss.
It's an honor to have you here.
Hello.
Hello.
Hi.
Anything you need.
I'm at your service.
-Your quarters are this way.
-I am not going to my quarters.
Where is he?
-You need to see him right now?
-Yes!
I'll have two of my soldiers
escort you.
-That way.
-Take good care of Alba please.
-I will.
-I'll take it.
-I am Serghey.
-Serghey, nice meeting you.
This way.
-This is Alba.
-Hello, Alba, nice meeting you.
Your quarters are right in here.
[GRUNTS]
Grab everything,
grab everything.
Look. Grab everything.
There's nothing in here.
Keep looking.
Let's go. Let's go. Now.
-Hey, go back there. Check, now.
-You got it.
Where are you gonna sell these?
That's not even real gold.
It ain't worth nothin'.
Forget about it.
Let's just leave.
Here, take this.
It will definitely sell.
Don't take it. It's bad luck
Take it.
It will help you
in times of need.
All right, it's all here.
Give this to the Colonel.
You're dismissed.
Bea, please don't angry with me.
Angry? I am ready to kill you!
We have to save everybody,
not just us.
I had to protect us first.
Do you know John, well?
Why do you want to know?
I just do.
I know you are thinking
about him.
I can feel it.
Attention on deck.
As you were.
It's done.
We took all the food
we could off the shelves.
and out of the
warehouses in the country.
It is all being transported
right here.
They'll be left with
half rations for a little while.
And the people?
Whoever signed the pact will be
here shortly.
She'll never find out.
So has she started working yet?
She will soon.
Are we sure we
can rely on her?
Of course.
Okay, sir.
[SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE]
Mom, I have no clothes.
No pajamas. Nothing.
I'm sorry, sweetie.
This is just temporary.
This looks clean.
I have to go to work now.
But, I'll be back soon.
I promise.
It's okay, Mom. Go.
Gotta go.
-Doctor.
-Colonel.
Well, we have the last of the
flowers.
Oh. And we brought clothes
for you and your daughter.
You went through my things?
I apologize, Doctor.
It was an emergency. The riots
already started we had to.
Thank you.
Put them over there, please.
-Colonel Krewiss.
-Yes.
I am really sorry for
yelling at you earlier.
It is just that the bees
are so fragile.
This, this whole move
could have been fatal.
There is no need to apologize.
I respect your work.
And the world is
depending on you.
So tell me, why is it so hard
to clone these bees.
From what I understand, they
are cloning all kinds of things.
It is not hard to clone them.
It is hard to make them
immortal.
Understood. Good luck.
Thank you.
Don't worry about it.
We'll make it work.
Ah.
It's all gonna be okay.
I hope so.

[NO AUDIBLE DIALOGUE]
NEWSCASTER: The food shortage
is becoming more alarming.
Food rations are getting less
and people are rioting
in the streets.
There are no trees.
There are no blossoms
on trees.
The cattle are dying,
as there has not been
food available for months.
Juicy steaks are no longer
a delight but a memory.
Little girl, just one
strawberry for you. That's it.
Please, sir.
We're a larger family.
Certainly, we can pay more.
Sorry, señor.
[SPEAKS SPANISH]
One fruit, one jar.
Guy, this is all we have.
You have a sister, Nina?
Yes, I do. She's sick at home.
My mother takes care of her.
[SPEAKS SPANISH]
Ah, look, the legs
are moving...
but the wings aren't fully
developed.
[GASPS]
[KNOCKING ON DOOR]
Hi.
Hello.
Dr. Zachary, I'm--
I know who you are.
Please come in.
What can I help you with?
I'm trying to find Dr. Cera.
I've been looking everywhere
for her.
She just vanished.
I need to talk to her.
I haven't seen her since
Christmas.
But, where could she be?
She was supposed
to save us all.
What if she's dead?
I pray that she's not.
Do you think it's happening
right now?
-The Apocalypse?
-Yes.
But what can we do?
We're all gonna die?
Please.
"And I saw thrones,
and they sat upon them.
And judgement was given
unto them,
and I saw the souls of them
beheaded,
for the witness of Jesus and
for the word of God,
and which had not worshiped
the beast in his image
neither had received his mark
upon their foreheads
or on their hands,
and they lived and reigned with
Christ for a thousand years."
A thousand years
is a very long time.
People interpret it differently.
It simply means the time
before the second coming
of Christ.
And Satan?
"Satan shall be loose
out of his prison
and shall go out
to deceive the nations,
which are in the four quarters
of the Earth."
We should tell the people.
We've been telling them.
Right.
Do you pray?
[BUZZING]
Oh, no, no.
Don't worry about it.
We gotta do it again.
[SLOW-MOTION TALKING]
[GASPS]
[SIGHS]
Alba, sweetie...
go to sleep.
Mommy?
Where do you think
Mr. John is right now?
Oh, I don't know, honey.
I was just wondering.
Mom,
do you know about
the dying rooms?
I don't remember exactly,
something about China.
August 15th.
Traveling through the region
of Guan Chee, China.
Hidden from the
foreigners' eyes
is the orphanage.
There were just two social
workers around
alone with a
hundred little girls.
They let me in, and that's
when I saw her.
She was only one day old.
Her mother abandoned her here,
cause she was a girl.
The staff had tied her
small body to a bed
and left her there,
soaked in urine and feces,
along with the other baby girls.
They were all crying.
One hundred baby girls crying.
They would only come
when the noise stopped,
to make room for others.
These are the dying rooms.
The government has denied
the existence of such places.
Fragments of an Entomologist's Journal,by Sonya Antonov.
Did you choose me?
I couldn't save all of them.
I couldn't.
-I had to--
-Pay for me?
They wouldn't let an
unmarried woman adopt a child.
I stole you.
I hid you in my parka,
and I ran.
You were so sick.
You weren't even crying.
When I got to the lab...
you had died at my breast.
My team took you away
to hide you.
Bury you.
And that's when I made
a promise.
I'd love you
and cherish you.
And give my soul
in exchange for your life.
And, that's when I heard
the baby cry.
He showed up from nowhere...
holding you.
You were mine.
-I love you, Mommy.
-I love you.
I thought the orphanage
was a big secret.
One million baby girls
are killed
in China every year,
and America does nothing.
That's why your mommy has
dedicated her life to
create the immortal bees.
So we could feed
the whole world.
And not care about the
overgrowing population
in China, India...
so beautiful girls, like you,
can grow happily.
But you took all the
food from the stores.
What?
How does that follow
your declarations?
My mom doesn't know
what you did.
But I understand things.
I look at you and I know.
Funny enough, you live up to
your real name.
[SPEAKS CHINESE]
Has your mommy here told you
who she gave her soul to?
Stop it. Stop it right there.
This farm is one of the many
vandalized farms across
California,
the number one food supplier of the United States.
Now, it is just a
deserted field,
with no crops to grow.
-What you got?
-I got two.
All right, pay the man.
There you go.
What you got?
I don't have anything,
but come on.
Come on please,
can I have some food.
No money, no food.
Man, if you ain't got money.
Whoa!
Hey, if you ain't got money,
we can work something out.
Hey, respect man.
She has a baby.
Don't you see.
-Relax. Okay. All right.
-Respect, okay.
I have the money, look.
I don't know how much it is,
but I have it.
Can have I some food, please?
I'll get you some food.
And I'll help you out, okay?
Just take care of the baby.
And don't be afraid, okay?
Hurry, hurry.
I got 'em right here.
-Okay, all right.
-Help her.
-This one's on me, okay?
-Thank you, God bless you.
-Thank you so much.
-Thank you.
-Take care of the baby, okay?
-Yeah.
The fate of the United States
and the entire world
is in the hands
of Dr. Beatrix Cera.
She has been working day
and night...
to bring back the bees,
the plants, and the animals.
Without you, Doctor...
mankind, as we know it,
and all plant life
will disappear.
How can you stand here
and enjoy your view?
Millions of people
in the world are starving.
There is no more food left.
Beatrix, the world is dying.
But with your bees,
when they're ready...
it's going to change everything.
It can reverse the universe,
and we can finally prove that--
What? That there is no God?
Can you prove there is one?
Alba, Alba is your proof.
[CHUCKLES]
Bea, if Alba was saved by God...
then why did God let those
millions of girls
in those
dying rooms die?
What God?
You can change the world,
and you will.
I will make that bee.
[LAUGHING]
[INAUDIBLE CHATTER]
WOMAN: Excuse me, Doctor.
I brought you some breakfast.
Thank you, Mikilah.
Leave it on the table, please.
You should eat, you know.
There are so many people
out there just starving.
You're right.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Mr. Serghey, I know where
we can find a Christmas tree.
Ha, ha. Alba.
All the trees are dead.
But he has one.
I saw one in
that horrible temple.
Don't play with him, Alba.
We cannot go in there.
[LAUGHING]
Yes, we can.
I know how to get in.
Alba, don't, stop!
We need to ask your mother.
Look, you forgot my neck hurts.
Alba, Alba. Oh, my God.
Alba, Alba.
Alba. Alba.
Help! Help!
Help me.
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
What happened?
What happened?
Alba, can you hear me?
Yes, Mommy.
I'm all right.
Beatrix, take a look at this.
Were you aware of this?
No. No, no,
this is not right.
This is a mistake.
It explains the heartbeat.
Beatrix.
There must be a cure.
There's always a cure.
This is rarest form of
auto-immune disease.
And it's so aggressive
And with our means today,
it's, it's irreversible.
There is no such
thing as irreversible.
We cured cancer, for God's sake!
Bea, I just heard.
I need John Zachary.
I need John!
He will know what to do.
But Bea...
I'm serious,
if you don't bring him here,
I will destroy all my work.
I have nothing more to give.
But so much to take.
You must have faith.
And then eternal life
will be given to you.
Man, this guy ain't gonna fill
my belly. I'm outta here.
I know everything, my friend.
You see, when you have
no more money to give away...
We're hungry.
This wretched world
will turn its back on you.
We are at the end of times.
We must change.
We must join our hearts
through love.
Is love gonna feed us?
Just love?
Do you actually want to feed
them love?
You really think
you can save them?
The whole country?
The whole world?
Why are you here?
I need you to come with me.
Alba is dying.
Beatrix asked for you.
Mom, is Pastor John coming?
Oh, I don't know, sweetie.
Go back to sleep.
I have to go to the lab.
Mom, you still think
you can create that bee?
I do. I have to!
To save the world.
I'll pray to God you succeed.
[SIGHS]
[♪♪♪♪♪]
Thank you. Thank you for coming.
Have faith, Beatrix.
Alba will be okay.
You are the only one
that can help her.
Let's go.
Prayed so much
that you would come.
Of course I came,
you're my best friend.
Mr. John...
did you see that there's no
more snow in the world
and all the water is gone
from acid rain?
How'd you know that?
Mom, I saw it in my dreams.
I travel a lot, you know,
Mr. John.
I know, Alba. I know.
Sweetie, you should rest now.
I will take Mr. John outside,
all right?
Yes, Mom.
Now that he's here,
we're all saved.
Help her, please.
I... just help her.
I'd give anything for her.
Except you already have,
haven't you?
BEATRIX:
When I see this...
I forget for a moment that
the world out there is ending.
Then I start dreaming,
for a few seconds only...
and then I remember
Alba's disease, my work,
my un-resurrected bees.
I just keep wondering...
what will happen with ourselves,
our own selves,
deep within us? Me, you, Alba?
What will happen with our souls?
Will we fly?
Go to another planet?
Scout the universe forever?
Or be just that... nothing.
What do you believe?
I don't believe.
I wish I had your faith.
Alba's faith.
I wish I believed
with all my heart
in something bigger,
greater, kinder.
[HELICOPTER FLYING]
The international food crisis
has depleted every nation's
food supply.
This could be the end.
I need to run some tests,
myself.
But is she gonna be all right?
John? Is she going to be okay?
Beatrix, have faith.
But, I need an answer.
Tell me, is she going
to be okay?
She's going to be okay.
Beatrix, look at this
DNA sequence. It's not right.
It's a mutation of
the heart tissue which is...
No, no.
This must be an error!
The machine is broken.
We'll get a new one.
I wish all these tests
were wrong.
Yeah.
I wish I could help
this little girl.
Somehow.
Poor Beatrix.
She has been through so much.
Nobody understands her life.
Nobody really understands her.
They all think that she
that she's this "Bee Lady"
that will "Save the World".
She's just a little soul...
that needs to be loved.
Beatrix, you should really
get some rest.
Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
I'm bothering you, I know.
It's just that I
cannot do anything.
I can't even focus on my work.
Mom, you never actually
explained to me
why is that only the bees
can save us.
Oh, you never really wanted to
know.
I'd like an entomology lesson.
-Really?
-Sure.
Me, too.
Ms. Warren, I am sure.
-Really?
-Yes, please.
Well, the bees can sustain the
whole life circuit.
We, we couldn't do it with
humans or mammals
for that matter,
because you cannot make a human
clone.
Cause it's not moral?
No, no, because see you can
make a clone,
but not a million.
But with the bees...
Beatrix, you should
be focusing now.
That bee can save Alba's life,
if our expert here can't.
You should go to the lab.
The new queen emerged.
They're waiting for you.
The last queen bee
in the world.
She could save us all.
Careful.
We'll wait now.
Our god is a bee.
Did you do this?
Do what, John?
Please, Father heal this child
with your power.
Please.
It's now or never.
She must accept them
as mating partners.
In nature, the drones die
in 13 minutes.
But not today.
Minute 14 means we have
succeeded.
And, when the eggs are laid...
we can say we have created
immortality.
[MACHINE BEEPING]
Okay.
Okay, just hold right there.
We need to get Beatrix.
Oh, God, Oh, God,
I hope they make it.
They will. Have faith.
In God or the bees?
Beatrix.
Give me one second.
Bea, it's Alba.
Come now!
-Alba, try to breathe.
-Alba, Alba, my baby!
Alba.
Love you, Mommy.
I love you my baby. I love you.
Mr. John, you'll take care of
Mommy?
Always.
Alba, Alba, Alba, Alba!
John, do something!
Clear.
[CRYING]
-Clear!
-There's still nothing.
Alba, wake up!
Wake up!
Oh, my God!
Beatrix, Beatrix. No.
Beatrix, stop it!
Beatrix.
[CRYING]
[FLATLINING BEEP]
[CRYING]
Child, go be with God,
our Father.
Jesus in Heaven,
Now and forever.
Please, Father, take her
into your arms.
Please, Father, take her
into your arms.
Go.
[NO AUDIBLE DIALOGUE]
Serghey gave Alba an icon.
with Mary, mother of Christ.
Good for healing, he said.
I never cared to touch it
or look at it,
but Alba brought it to my lab.
"Mommy, to help your bees.
I promise."
I never thought she
would be the one
who needed help.
I know it's coming.
The acid rains have started
around the globe.
Soon there will be
no more oxygen left.
The ones who weren't lucky to
be dead
by now, will suffocate.
My death will be painful
and non-heroic.
I was the "Hope of the World."
What a charade!
[LAUGHING]
You were right.
I've been so angry with God...
[SIGHS]
...for everything.
I killed a man once.
He was impatient
for Alba to die,
so he could throw her away
and go home for the day.
He wouldn't let me take her.
I stabbed him
with my pocket knife.
I felt nothing.
And I took her and I ran away.
Your God probably despises me.
He forgives us for our sins.
But see, I don't think
it was a sin.
I'd do it again.
And again, and again.
John...
do you still believe in Him?
I do, Beatrix. Yes.
Then make him wake her up.
I want her back.
He can do that, right?
He can do anything.
But sometimes this
is His will.
What use is your Jesus,
if He can't help us when we
need Him?
Beatrix, she's with Him
right now.
She's in a much happier place.
No, no. She was happy
with me, with me.
I'm her mother.
I want her back.
I know.
I know.
[♪♪♪♪♪]
Dr. Cera, they came out.
You made it.
You made the immortal bees!
The bees.
Yes, they woke up.
Come quickly.
Oh, but I can't
leave Alba alone.
He took them to his temple.
You mother loves you very much,
Alba.
And I love you, too.
You are my chosen ones!
You signed a pact.
I bought you all.
You are my strength.
You will never change.
You lie.
You cheat.
You steal.
You kill your babies,
before birth
and after birth.
And you hate.
You hate.
You hate with all your hearts!
You hate your God.
And every other Godly man
out there.
[LAUGHS EVILLY]
You killed your stupid Jesus.
And then in His name
you cry.
Your species deserves to die.
But I won't let it.
I will transform you.
I will make you invincible.
And I will make you...
immortal!
Immortal!
Immortal!
I gave you my soul.
for Alba's life!
I gave her one, didn't I?
But you took it back.
I didn't.
Your God did.
You promised us immortality!
[CRYING]
I did everything you asked.
I gave Him up.
I believed in you.
Do you want Alba back?
I can get you Alba back.
But I want you to ask me for
one thing.
-John's head.
-No.
No, no.
Ask it, Beatrix.
I told you, you couldn't
save Alba.
He left you all alone.
In your pain
And in your sorrow.
Do you see it now?
Christ can do anything, Beatrix.
You just have to believe it,
with all your heart.
Even if I had to die for Him,
I won't deny him.
No, no.
No!
John.
[ALL COUGHING]
[CHUCKLING]
You're the Devil!
I'll destroy you!
[CRYING]
[COUGHING]
God forgive us.
Forgive our sins.
Forgive me, Lord.
I give my life to you, Christ.
I believe in you.
[COUGHING]
[GASPING]
Light of the World.
No, no, no, no!
I won!
Please don't come back.
Don't come back.
I won!
I am the root
and the offspring of David
and the bright Morning Star.
My reward is with Me,
to give every man
according as his work has been.
I am Alpha and Omega,
the beginning and the end...
the first and the last.
[WHIMPERING]
Go and feed your child.
Your faith has brought
her back to you.
Mommy.
Alba, Alba.
[LAUGHING]

I love you. I love you.
I love you, Mommy.
I love you.

[LAUGHS]
WOMAN: Alba, Alba,
my sweet child.
This is my daughter, Alba.
I adopted her when she
was a little baby.
My constant nightmare
is that she cannot breathe.
[WATER RUNNING]
She sometimes sleeps
with me.
She wants to protect me
from my nightmares.
Dad? Are there not food rations
for all of us?
This is ridiculous,
for God's sake.
-We just need to be patient.
-But this is a national crisis.
All the plants in the world are
dying, and nobody knows why.
What is like for you to start
this highly publicized
collaboration with the most
powerful man in the world,
in the midst
of this global crisis?
It is extremely challenging.
I'm home.
WOMAN: California,
Christmas Eve,
Sorry I'm late!
Alba's been waiting, watching
the Sonya Antonov interview.
Alba?
He is the only hope
for our planet.
They say he's a genius.
Yes.
Hi, Mom.
Hey.
Yes, with all my heart.
So you were wrong
to blame him before?
No...
Well, he's supporting my,
my work right now
and this is
the most important thing.
You fought against
engineering life,
and now you are working
hand and hand with him?
When the world population
goes from six to ten billion
people overnight,
engineered food is a god--
Listen, he tried to help
all the world,
but something went
terribly wrong.
and now, everything he's been
working for can disappear
if I don't do something.
But what can you do?
It's inevitable, it says it
in the Book.
What book?
The Bible.
It says right there,
the last chapter.
Alba's obsession with religion
and Sonya Antonov are the two
big mysteries of my life.
Maybe, but we're all starving, and the food has quickly
disappeared from our tables
and we're all living on
small rations now.
Dr. Cera...
do you believe in God?
I don't.
I can't help but ask you,
it's about Alba.
Christ will forgive us,
and he will help us...
but if we love one another.
It's the only way.
You have to believe.
You have to have faith.
You have to seek salvation...
but only if we love one another.
Hello, Mister Preacher.
How are you today?
Hey, Alba.
Well, I am just preaching away,
as usual.
Alba, Alba.
What are you doing talking to
this man?
And, he knows your name?
Yeah, we talk every day.
When I stop by on my way back
from school.
Serghey likes him, too.
He's a very nice man.
Hi. I'm John.
And you are the world-famous
scientist Dr. Beatrix Cera.
Did you have to tell him
my name?
Look it, I am sorry Doctor. No.
Alba and I only speak
about the Lord.
I've seen your picture
on all the magazine covers
and in all the news stories.
Everybody knows who you are.
My mother's going to speak
at the submit tomorrow.
I heard.
So you're the "New Hope"?
Well, nobody wanted
to listen before,
but tomorrow they will
and everything will change.
I know. True hope has been lost.
Faith, only prayer can save us.
Or science.
You are a fighter, Doctor.
However, above it all--
Above it all, man shall succeed.
I'm sorry, Mr. John,
the Preacher,
but I don't have time for a
religious debate.
We have to go home now.
-ALBA: Goodbye.
-Goodbye. Thank you.

John, we're out of food,
and the line outside

Dr. Beatrix Cera arrives...
Does this mean I'm gonna

Dude, shut up! It's starting.
...genetically engineered foods.
New World Genetics
called this emergency summit
to combat the international
food crisis.
Misseur Doctor, Beatrix Cera...
[speaking Japanese]
New World Genetics Laboratory.
[SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE]
[SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE]
There's no way we're
getting in there.
I'm going to find another way.
No, no, GMO! No, no...
Dr. Cera will explain why
all the vegetation
on the planet is dying.
My dear people,
thank you for being here.
The leaders of the world,
thank you for being here,
as well.
Today is the biggest day
in our history,
and we're all here
to share it together...
as one big family of our
beloved Earth.
I am going to introduce you to
the most dedicated
and pertinent scientist
of all times.
Dr. Beatrix Cera is going
to explain the situation
to you all.
Please let's give a big round
of applause
for Dr. Beatrix Cera.
[APPLAUSE]
Thank you, United Nations.
New World Genetics has started
to engineer the food
in order to meet the needs
of a fast-growing population
worldwide.
New World Genetics has created
better food.
Food for everybody.
But during the process,
a very unfortunate event
has occurred.
The change in the DNA sequence
of the newer generations
of plants,
has triggered a self-defense
mechanism
and, now, the plants are
attacking the foreign gene.
Meaning, that they actually
began to self-destruct.
This year's harvest
of wheat, corn,
rice and soy has died...
unexpectedly.
The honey bees,
which account for 80%
of our world pollinators
have been
spreading the affected pollen
from the genetically
modified plants...
to all of the rest.
And because the entire
vegetation of our planet
functions like one unit,
like one single organism...
now all the plants
around the globe...
are killing their seeds.
Soon, there will be no more
fruit in the world.
There will be no more food
to feed the animals.
[CROWD CHANTING]
You made it.
No one else is here, right.
The mob is insane.
All of the reporters.
Everybody, all of them.
She's going to
speak today, okay?
I saw her escorted
by armed soldiers.
It's going to be
one hell of a day.
Let's go.
Stop. You need to back off now.
-Can I just talk to you?
-It's okay. It's okay.
Can you let me in please?
Come on, important day.
No, no more reporters.
Oh, come on, one more reporter.
They won't notice.
It's extremely late.
It has already started.
There will be no empty seats.
You don't have clearance.
I'd most likely lose my job and
my food rations. So no.
Wait, how about this
for clearance, hm?
-Let's go. Follow me.
-Thank you.
We do, however, have
federal food reserves
that will last us
maybe three months.
[ARGUING]
Everybody, please,
silence.
Dr. Cera is just
giving you some facts.
But, she's got
the solution, too.
Before all the bees perished,
Dr. Cera managed to save a few
healthy bee eggs.
And she's going to clone them
into special bees.
The honey bees have this anomaly
that is a gift, actually.
It is called thelytoky.
It is a type of parthenogenesis
in which females
are produced from
unfertilized eggs.
The social Hymenoptera can
naturally clone themselves.
The gene that I have isolated.
Our scientist will transfer
this new gene in all
the patented New World Genetics
seeds and create new plants.
Immortal plants.
And once humans and animals
are fed our new food,
the new gene will make
its way through
the human and animal DNA.
I call it the Immortality Gene.
I am working on transferring it
to my new population of bees,
so their cells will begin to
clone automatically.
And make us all...
immortal.
World leaders, we need you
to sign my pact
and become a part of
the New World Genetics
Survival Program.
We need your help.
I would like to introduce you to
the Nobel Prize Laureate
for Medicine...
the man behind the cure
for cancer.
He agreed to be here today,
in an effort to save the world.
Please, ladies and gentlemen,
let's give a big round
of applause
for Dr. John Zachary.
Thank you, friend of the world.
And thank you, Dr. Cera.
What you say is true.
It has begun...
the Apocalypse.
But do you people think that it
started with companies like
New World Genetics
altering of life?
With the pollution?
The pesticides?
No.
It started a long time ago.
It started when we told God
that we don't need Him anymore
and we welcomed in
the Other One.
And he became our new resident,
our resident evil.
And it's true, we conquered the
plague that is cancer.
But a new disease will arise...
deadlier...
stronger...
I mean do you think if we
created immortal life,
that we, as human beings,
will become kinder?
That we will become more
generous?
No.
You will be dead in immortality
because your soul will belong
to the Other One.
Is it too late? No.
But we must humble our backs
and beg for forgiveness.
We must ask our Christ to come
down to save us.
We must ask Christ, Our Lord,
to come an evict our
new resident
from our minds
and from our hearts.
We must surrender to prayer
and to faith.
That is only way we will
survive.
That is the only way
to be immortal.
Love is immortal.
Christ is love.
Love one another.
Love one another,
now and forever
and you will survive
the end of times.
Merry Christmas,
children of God.
Hello, Doctor.
Hello.
You are the crazy billionaire
that gave
his fortune away
and left the world?
And now, you're preaching on
the corner of my street...
about paradise.
About penitence.
So you really think your Christ
will come from the sky
and save you
because you repent.
I know that Christ
will come back,
and only those that repent
will be saved.
You obviously understand that
Dr. Zachary speaks
metaphorically.
Yes, we are at
the end of times.
But we're not here to
acknowledge our extinction...
but to unveil the elixir...
for eternal life.
-John, John.
-Yes.
I want to ask you something.
Sure.
People listen to you.
What do you tell those who
don't care about anything
you said in there?
Jesus, now the joke
of trendy people,
was, is, and always
has been love.
I guess that is what I would
tell them.
What about those
that reject Him?
If there was anything
else to say,
I guess it would be
"That it's never too late".
Have a good evening.
We will not perish...
but transform.
We will become stronger and
more resilient than ever.
We have already conquered
the Earth.
Now, we will conquer all death.
Hi.
Hi.
Dr. Cera, that was a powerful
speech.
Have you known Dr. Zachary
for a while?
I know him.
He's my best friend.
-Ah.
-It is so strange.
He used to be a force of nature
and now...
Now?
Now, he's homeless.
He's preaching on the corner
of our street about love.
It's what Jesus has taught us,
to give love.
Well, I never met the Doctor.
I only met the homeless man.
Hmmm.
Excuse me.
May I have a moment
alone with Dr. Cera, please?
Oh, yeah. Sure.
Thank you.
Wow, you were amazing.
Why did you let him speak?
Yes, the world needs
to hear his crazy theories
before they doubt him.
Why would they doubt him?
He has a Nobel Prize
for curing cancer!
He's been feeding all the
homeless people in the country.
[LAUGHING]
While preaching to
them from under a bridge.
He's preaching about love
to people that forgot
what it is like to be loved.
And tomorrow, his money won't
have much to buy,
and love doesn't feed
their bellies.
But our new food will.
We will feed the homeless,
and they will love us back.
Will they love him then? No.
They will hate him for his
annoying noise
about repentance and hell.
[SIGHS]
Let's go celebrate.
All right?
You and I...
we will save the world.
Your part is waiting
for you.
Dr. Beatrix Cera
will create the immortal bee,
from there, she will open
a path to create
the immortal plants
and food crops.
Humanity will thrive
and soon conquer death.
We dare you, Apocalypse.
The new human being
is not afraid.
SONYA: The Nobel Prize
Laureate, Dr. John Zachary,
has left the building,
after casting his Apocalyptic
words on humanity.
He was not available
for an interview,
but we're hoping to locate him
and learn more about how
he's planning on
applying love today
on the people that soon will
start killing for food.
This is Sonya Antonov

I didn't think you'd show up.
But I did.
You did, thank you.
Don't.
We will still win this.
He will leave you alone
in the world.
He won't help you save her.
His will be done.
You will deny his name
in front of me.
Even if I have to die for Him...
I will never deny Him.
And we didn't make it to church.
No, sweetie, I'm sorry.
We didn't.
We never make it.
Anyways, I want to give these
presents to the homeless
children.
Do you mind?
No, honey, of course
I don't mind.
But I'll keep this.
Mom, can I ask you something?
Since when do you need my
permission.
This is serious.
Shoot it.
Well, you said today that you
are going to create
the immortal bee.
Yeah.
But, God created the bee.
Well, apparently, He didn't do
the best job.
But His creation is perfect.
Alba.
We live in an age, now, where
we can create life ourselves.
But Mom, what about God?
What about Him?
Oh, I'm sorry, sweetie.
Come over here.
I'm so sorry.
Oh, I'm so, so sorry.
Listen.
I didn't grow up
learning about God.
I grew up learning
about the man
and his accomplishments.
And, I became a scientist.
And now only scientists
can save the world
[KNOCK ON DOOR]
I'm sorry.
I saw the lights were still on.
And we were about
to turn them off.
-Alba.
-That's all right.
I wanted to tell you
before you saw it on TV.
All the leaders of the world
signed the pact.
That's it.
I'm ruling the world
as of today.
Over the President?
Over the President.
Without me, the world will
collapse. With me...
The world will
become immortal.
[SCOFFS]
Alba...
I'm sorry. She's just a kid.
Yes, just a kid.
Alba might come back.
I am...
I, I understand.
Maybe you should get some rest.
-Yes.
-These are for you.
Have a good night.
[SIGH]
[NO AUDIBLE DIALOGUE]
[CRYING]
Mommy? Mommy.
It's okay. I'm here.
You're having a nightmare.
Oh, oh, baby.
You know how much I love you,
don't you?
I know, Mommy.
Merry Christmas, Mr. Serghey.
Merry Christmas to you, too,
Miss Alba.
Merry Christmas,
Madame Dr. Cera.
Hi, Serghey. Sorry we're late.
I got a present for you.
Good for protection,
the mother of Jesus.
It will help you
in case of illness.
-Makes miracles.
-What's that?
It's an icon.
Oh, Serghey, I always thought
you were an old communist.
Sorry, Madame, but I thought
Alba likes it.
It's from my mother.
It helps you in case of illness.
It just heals.
-Thank you, years of medicine.
-Can I keep it, Mom?
You can, as long as
you take your antibiotics.
when you're sick.
-Okay, let's go.
-Okay--
Wait, um...
Did that man, Mr. John,
tell you where his church was?
Yes, Mommy. Thank you.
I love you, Mommy.
It's called the Holy Trinity.
Oh, I know where it is.
They give lunch and shelter
to all of the town's
homeless people, so let's go.
Well, Alba has some presents
for the children.
-Oh.
-Can you help her?
Sure, let's go.
-Merry Christmas.
-Merry Christmas.
-Merry Christmas.
-Merry Christmas.
Here. Thank you.
Merry Christmas.
God bless you.
Everybody is gone.
You may go inside.
Mass is over,
and you may pray in silence.
Miss Alba.
Come to me, please.
Stay with me.
Put your fingers together
like this.
Up, down, right, ...
What are you doing?
Praying.
-Our Father, who art in Heaven
-Our Father, who art in Heaven
Hallowed be thy name,
thy Kingdom come...
Hallowed be thy name,
thy Kingdom come...
You came.
[CHUCKLES]
Oh, Alba wanted to bring her
presents here for the children.
Thank you.
We should go.
Dr. Cera.
Call me Beatrix.
Beatrix, okay.
You have something
you want to ask me.
It's just that I can't stop
thinking...
Yes?
About you.
How, how, how can you donate
billions of dollars...
and be just...
Poor?
Yeah. Be left with nothing.
How are you going to help
people now?
Well, it's simple really.
I talk to them.
I hope to teach them.
So what do you think will
happen?
They will become better.
They will love one another.
And that they will believe
in Christ.
Oh, you really believe
that your Christ will come
and judge all of us.
Yes, and soon.
"Behold, I come quickly
and my reward is with me.
I render all men according to
their own work.
I am the Alpha and Omega,
the first and last...
-the beginning and the end."
-[LAUGHS]
I'll make that bee,
so I'll make sure your God
doesn't have to show up.
-Beatrix?
-Yes?
W-Why are you so angry?
Oh, I thought you were a
preacher, not a shrink.
Well, I sensed it.
I didn't mean to upset you.
You have Alba. She adores you.
The world adores you.
You should be happy.
You don't know my life.
You don't know what I've
been through
I know you've been
through a lot.
That's why you reject God.
Hi, Mr. John, so happy we're
meeting here today.
Even if the mass has ended.
I am so glad that you came, and
I wish you a Merry Christmas.
You, too, Mr. John.
I have something for you.
I know you'll like this.
It is my Christmas gift to you.
Thank you. Thank you.
We should go now.
It's really late.
I hope to see you soon,
Beatrix.
Ma'am, we gotta go right now.
-What's going on?
-We gotta go.
-We gotta go now.
-Alba, come on.
-Come on, come on.
-Serghey, come on.
-Just go along!
-Go.
Please get in.
We can't just leave.
What about the others, my work,
my files?
It's been shipped.
Please get in.
Dr. Cera,
Colonel Krewiss.
It's an honor to have you here.
Hello.
Hello.
Hi.
Anything you need.
I'm at your service.
-Your quarters are this way.
-I am not going to my quarters.
Where is he?
-You need to see him right now?
-Yes!
I'll have two of my soldiers
escort you.
-That way.
-Take good care of Alba please.
-I will.
-I'll take it.
-I am Serghey.
-Serghey, nice meeting you.
This way.
-This is Alba.
-Hello, Alba, nice meeting you.
Your quarters are right in here.
[GRUNTS]
Grab everything,
grab everything.
Look. Grab everything.
There's nothing in here.
Keep looking.
Let's go. Let's go. Now.
-Hey, go back there. Check, now.
-You got it.
Where are you gonna sell these?
That's not even real gold.
It ain't worth nothin'.
Forget about it.
Let's just leave.
Here, take this.
It will definitely sell.
Don't take it. It's bad luck
Take it.
It will help you
in times of need.
All right, it's all here.
Give this to the Colonel.
You're dismissed.
Bea, please don't angry with me.
Angry? I am ready to kill you!
We have to save everybody,
not just us.
I had to protect us first.
Do you know John, well?
Why do you want to know?
I just do.
I know you are thinking
about him.
I can feel it.
Attention on deck.
As you were.
It's done.
We took all the food
we could off the shelves.
and out of the
warehouses in the country.
It is all being transported
right here.
They'll be left with
half rations for a little while.
And the people?
Whoever signed the pact will be
here shortly.
She'll never find out.
So has she started working yet?
She will soon.
Are we sure we
can rely on her?
Of course.
Okay, sir.
[SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE]
Mom, I have no clothes.
No pajamas. Nothing.
I'm sorry, sweetie.
This is just temporary.
This looks clean.
I have to go to work now.
But, I'll be back soon.
I promise.
It's okay, Mom. Go.
Gotta go.
-Doctor.
-Colonel.
Well, we have the last of the
flowers.
Oh. And we brought clothes
for you and your daughter.
You went through my things?
I apologize, Doctor.
It was an emergency. The riots
already started we had to.
Thank you.
Put them over there, please.
-Colonel Krewiss.
-Yes.
I am really sorry for
yelling at you earlier.
It is just that the bees
are so fragile.
This, this whole move
could have been fatal.
There is no need to apologize.
I respect your work.
And the world is
depending on you.
So tell me, why is it so hard
to clone these bees.
From what I understand, they
are cloning all kinds of things.
It is not hard to clone them.
It is hard to make them
immortal.
Understood. Good luck.
Thank you.
Don't worry about it.
We'll make it work.
Ah.
It's all gonna be okay.
I hope so.

There are no trees.
There are no blossoms

Juicy steaks are no longer

Please, sir.
We're a larger family.

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]
Hi.
Hello.
Dr. Zachary, I'm--
I know who you are.
Please come in.
What can I help you with?
I'm trying to find Dr. Cera.
I've been looking everywhere
for her.
She just vanished.
I need to talk to her.
I haven't seen her since
Christmas.
But, where could she be?
She was supposed
to save us all.
What if she's dead?
I pray that she's not.
Do you think it's happening
right now?
-The Apocalypse?
-Yes.
But what can we do?
We're all gonna die?
Please.
"And I saw thrones,
and they sat upon them.
And judgement was given
unto them,
and I saw the souls of them
beheaded,
for the witness of Jesus and
for the word of God,
and which had not worshiped
the beast in his image
neither had received his mark
upon their foreheads
or on their hands,
and they lived and reigned with
Christ for a thousand years."
A thousand years
is a very long time.
People interpret it differently.
It simply means the time
before the second coming
of Christ.
And Satan?
"Satan shall be loose
out of his prison
and shall go out
to deceive the nations,
which are in the four quarters
of the Earth."
We should tell the people.
We've been telling them.
Right.
Do you pray?

Oh, no, no.
Don't worry about it.
We gotta do it again.

[SIGHS]
Alba, sweetie...
go to sleep.
Mommy?
Where do you think
Mr. John is right now?
Oh, I don't know, honey.
I was just wondering.
Mom,
do you know about
the dying rooms?
I don't remember exactly,
something about China.
August 15th.
Traveling through the region
of Guan Chee, China.
Hidden from the
foreigners' eyes
is the orphanage.
There were just two social
workers around
alone with a
hundred little girls.
They let me in, and that's
when I saw her.
She was only one day old.
Her mother abandoned her here,
cause she was a girl.
The staff had tied her
small body to a bed
and left her there,
soaked in urine and feces,
along with the other baby girls.
They were all crying.
One hundred baby girls crying.
They would only come
when the noise stopped,
to make room for others.
These are the dying rooms.
The government has denied
the existence of such places.
Fragments of an Entomologist's Journal,by Sonya Antonov.
Did you choose me?
I couldn't save all of them.
I couldn't.
-I had to--
-Pay for me?
They wouldn't let an
unmarried woman adopt a child.
I stole you.
I hid you in my parka,
and I ran.
You were so sick.
You weren't even crying.
When I got to the lab...
you had died at my breast.
My team took you away
to hide you.
Bury you.
And that's when I made
a promise.
I'd love you
and cherish you.
And give my soul
in exchange for your life.
And, that's when I heard
the baby cry.
He showed up from nowhere...
holding you.
You were mine.
-I love you, Mommy.
-I love you.
I thought the orphanage
was a big secret.
One million baby girls
are killed
in China every year,
and America does nothing.
That's why your mommy has
dedicated her life to
create the immortal bees.
So we could feed
the whole world.
And not care about the
overgrowing population
in China, India...
so beautiful girls, like you,
can grow happily.
But you took all the
food from the stores.
What?
How does that follow
your declarations?
My mom doesn't know
what you did.
But I understand things.
I look at you and I know.
Funny enough, you live up to
your real name.
[SPEAKS CHINESE]
Has your mommy here told you
who she gave her soul to?
Stop it. Stop it right there.
This farm is one of the many
vandalized farms across
California,
the number one food supplier of the United States.
Now, it is just a
deserted field,
with no crops to grow.
-What you got?
-I got two.
All right, pay the man.
There you go.
What you got?
I don't have anything,
but come on.
Come on please,
can I have some food.
No money, no food.
Man, if you ain't got money.
Whoa!
Hey, if you ain't got money,
we can work something out.
Hey, respect man.
She has a baby.
Don't you see.
-Relax. Okay. All right.
-Respect, okay.
I have the money, look.
I don't know how much it is,
but I have it.
Can have I some food, please?
I'll get you some food.
And I'll help you out, okay?
Just take care of the baby.
And don't be afraid, okay?
Hurry, hurry.
I got 'em right here.
-Okay, all right.
-Help her.
-This one's on me, okay?
-Thank you, God bless you.
-Thank you so much.
-Thank you.
-Take care of the baby, okay?
-Yeah.
The fate of the United States
and the entire world
is in the hands
of Dr. Beatrix Cera.
She has been working day
and night...
to bring back the bees,
the plants, and the animals.
Without you, Doctor...
mankind, as we know it,
and all plant life
will disappear.
How can you stand here
and enjoy your view?
Millions of people
in the world are starving.
There is no more food left.
Beatrix, the world is dying.
But with your bees,
when they're ready...
it's going to change everything.
It can reverse the universe,
and we can finally prove that--
What? That there is no God?
Can you prove there is one?
Alba, Alba is your proof.
[CHUCKLES]
Bea, if Alba was saved by God...
then why did God let those
millions of girls
in those
dying rooms die?
What God?
You can change the world,
and you will.
I will make that bee.

[INAUDIBLE CHATTER]
WOMAN: Excuse me, Doctor.
I brought you some breakfast.
Thank you, Mikilah.
Leave it on the table, please.
You should eat, you know.
There are so many people
out there just starving.
You're right.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Mr. Serghey, I know where
we can find a Christmas tree.
Ha, ha. Alba.
All the trees are dead.
But he has one.
I saw one in
that horrible temple.
Don't play with him, Alba.
We cannot go in there.
[LAUGHING]
Yes, we can.
I know how to get in.
Alba, don't, stop!
We need to ask your mother.
Look, you forgot my neck hurts.
Alba, Alba. Oh, my God.
Alba, Alba.
Alba. Alba.
Help! Help!
Help me.
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
What happened?
What happened?
Alba, can you hear me?
Yes, Mommy.
I'm all right.
Beatrix, take a look at this.
Were you aware of this?
No. No, no,
this is not right.
This is a mistake.
It explains the heartbeat.
Beatrix.
There must be a cure.
There's always a cure.
This is rarest form of
auto-immune disease.
And it's so aggressive
And with our means today,
it's, it's irreversible.
There is no such
thing as irreversible.
We cured cancer, for God's sake!
Bea, I just heard.
I need John Zachary.
I need John!
He will know what to do.
But Bea...
I'm serious,
if you don't bring him here,
I will destroy all my work.
I have nothing more to give.
But so much to take.
You must have faith.
And then eternal life
will be given to you.
Man, this guy ain't gonna fill
my belly. I'm outta here.
I know everything, my friend.
You see, when you have
no more money to give away...
We're hungry.
This wretched world
will turn its back on you.
We are at the end of times.
We must change.
We must join our hearts
through love.
Is love gonna feed us?
Just love?
Do you actually want to feed
them love?
You really think
you can save them?
The whole country?
The whole world?
Why are you here?
I need you to come with me.
Alba is dying.
Beatrix asked for you.
Mom, is Pastor John coming?
Oh, I don't know, sweetie.
Go back to sleep.
I have to go to the lab.
Mom, you still think
you can create that bee?
I do. I have to!
To save the world.
I'll pray to God you succeed.
[SIGHS]
[♪♪♪♪♪]
Thank you. Thank you for coming.
Have faith, Beatrix.
Alba will be okay.
You are the only one
that can help her.
Let's go.
Prayed so much
that you would come.
Of course I came,
you're my best friend.
Mr. John...
did you see that there's no
more snow in the world
and all the water is gone
from acid rain?
How'd you know that?
Mom, I saw it in my dreams.
I travel a lot, you know,
Mr. John.
I know, Alba. I know.
Sweetie, you should rest now.
I will take Mr. John outside,
all right?
Yes, Mom.
Now that he's here,
we're all saved.
Help her, please.
I... just help her.
I'd give anything for her.
Except you already have,
haven't you?
BEATRIX:
When I see this...
I forget for a moment that
the world out there is ending.
Then I start dreaming,
for a few seconds only...
and then I remember
Alba's disease, my work,
my un-resurrected bees.
I just keep wondering...
what will happen with ourselves,
our own selves,
deep within us? Me, you, Alba?
What will happen with our souls?
Will we fly?
Go to another planet?
Scout the universe forever?
Or be just that... nothing.
What do you believe?
I don't believe.
I wish I had your faith.
Alba's faith.
I wish I believed
with all my heart
in something bigger,
greater, kinder.
[HELICOPTER FLYING]
The international food crisis
has depleted every nation's
food supply.
This could be the end.
I need to run some tests,
myself.
But is she gonna be all right?
John? Is she going to be okay?
Beatrix, have faith.
But, I need an answer.
Tell me, is she going
to be okay?
She's going to be okay.
Beatrix, look at this
DNA sequence. It's not right.
It's a mutation of
the heart tissue which is...
No, no.
This must be an error!
The machine is broken.
We'll get a new one.
I wish all these tests
were wrong.
Yeah.
I wish I could help
this little girl.
Somehow.
Poor Beatrix.
She has been through so much.
Nobody understands her life.
Nobody really understands her.
They all think that she
that she's this "Bee Lady"
that will "Save the World".
She's just a little soul...
that needs to be loved.
Beatrix, you should really
get some rest.
Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
I'm bothering you, I know.
It's just that I
cannot do anything.
I can't even focus on my work.
Mom, you never actually
explained to me
why is that only the bees
can save us.
Oh, you never really wanted to
know.
I'd like an entomology lesson.
-Really?
-Sure.
Me, too.
Ms. Warren, I am sure.
-Really?
-Yes, please.
Well, the bees can sustain the
whole life circuit.
We, we couldn't do it with
humans or mammals
for that matter,
because you cannot make a human
clone.
Cause it's not moral?
No, no, because see you can
make a clone,
but not a million.
But with the bees...
Beatrix, you should
be focusing now.
That bee can save Alba's life,
if our expert here can't.
You should go to the lab.
The new queen emerged.
They're waiting for you.
The last queen bee
in the world.
She could save us all.
Careful.
We'll wait now.
Our god is a bee.
Did you do this?
Do what, John?
Please, Father heal this child
with your power.
Please.
It's now or never.
She must accept them
as mating partners.
In nature, the drones die
in 13 minutes.
But not today.
Minute 14 means we have
succeeded.
And, when the eggs are laid...
we can say we have created
immortality.
[MACHINE BEEPING]
Okay.
Okay, just hold right there.
We need to get Beatrix.
Oh, God, Oh, God,
I hope they make it.
They will. Have faith.
In God or the bees?
Beatrix.
Give me one second.
Bea, it's Alba.
Come now!
-Alba, try to breathe.
-Alba, Alba, my baby!
Alba.
Love you, Mommy.
I love you my baby. I love you.
Mr. John, you'll take care of
Mommy?
Always.
Alba, Alba, Alba, Alba!
John, do something!
Clear.
[CRYING]
-Clear!
-There's still nothing.
Alba, wake up!
Wake up!
Oh, my God!
Beatrix, Beatrix. No.
Beatrix, stop it!
Beatrix.

Serghey gave Alba an icon.
with Mary, mother of Christ.
Good for healing, he said.
I never cared to touch it
or look at it,
but Alba brought it to my lab.
"Mommy, to help your bees.
I promise."
I never thought she
would be the one
who needed help.
I know it's coming.
The acid rains have started
around the globe.
Soon there will be
no more oxygen left.
The ones who weren't lucky to
be dead
by now, will suffocate.
My death will be painful
and non-heroic.
I was the "Hope of the World."
What a charade!
[LAUGHING]
You were right.
I've been so angry with God...
[SIGHS]
...for everything.
I killed a man once.
He was impatient
for Alba to die,
so he could throw her away
and go home for the day.
He wouldn't let me take her.
I stabbed him
with my pocket knife.
I felt nothing.
And I took her and I ran away.
Your God probably despises me.
He forgives us for our sins.
But see, I don't think
it was a sin.
I'd do it again.
And again, and again.
John...
do you still believe in Him?
I do, Beatrix. Yes.
Then make him wake her up.
I want her back.
He can do that, right?
He can do anything.
But sometimes this
is His will.
What use is your Jesus,
if He can't help us when we
need Him?
Beatrix, she's with Him
right now.
She's in a much happier place.
No, no. She was happy
with me, with me.
I'm her mother.
I want her back.
I know.
I know.
[♪♪♪♪♪]
Dr. Cera, they came out.
You made it.
You made the immortal bees!
The bees.
Yes, they woke up.
Come quickly.
Oh, but I can't
leave Alba alone.
He took them to his temple.
You mother loves you very much,
Alba.
And I love you, too.
You are my chosen ones!
You signed a pact.
I bought you all.
You are my strength.
You will never change.
You lie.
You cheat.
You steal.
You kill your babies,
before birth
and after birth.
And you hate.
You hate.
You hate with all your hearts!
You hate your God.
And every other Godly man
out there.
[LAUGHS EVILLY]
You killed your stupid Jesus.
And then in His name
you cry.
Your species deserves to die.
But I won't let it.
I will transform you.
I will make you invincible.
And I will make you...
immortal!
Immortal!
Immortal!
I gave you my soul.
for Alba's life!
I gave her one, didn't I?
But you took it back.
I didn't.
Your God did.
You promised us immortality!
[CRYING]
I did everything you asked.
I gave Him up.
I believed in you.
Do you want Alba back?
I can get you Alba back.
But I want you to ask me for
one thing.
-John's head.
-No.
No, no.
Ask it, Beatrix.
I told you, you couldn't
save Alba.
He left you all alone.
In your pain
And in your sorrow.
Do you see it now?
Christ can do anything, Beatrix.
You just have to believe it,
with all your heart.
Even if I had to die for Him,
I won't deny him.
No, no.
No!
John.
[ALL COUGHING]
[CHUCKLING]
You're the Devil!
I'll destroy you!
[CRYING]
[COUGHING]
God forgive us.
Forgive our sins.
Forgive me, Lord.
I give my life to you, Christ.
I believe in you.
[COUGHING]
[GASPING]
Light of the World.
No, no, no, no!
I won!
Please don't come back.
Don't come back.
I won!
I am the root
and the offspring of David
and the bright Morning Star.
My reward is with Me,
to give every man
according as his work has been.
I am Alpha and Omega,
the beginning and the end...
the first and the last.
[WHIMPERING]
Go and feed your child.
Your faith has brought
her back to you.
Mommy.
Alba, Alba.
[LAUGHING]
Alba.
I love you. I love you.
I love you, Mommy.
I love you.
Thank you.
[♪♪♪♪♪]
[THUNDER RUMBLING]
Mom...
He sent me to take care of you.
