Centigrade (2020) - full transcript

A married couple find themselves trapped in their frozen vehicle after a blizzard and struggle to survive amid plunging temperatures and unforeseen obstacles.

Matt?

Wake up.

My door, it won't open.

Matt, wake up.

What?

What are you doing?

My door won't open.

Try to get your door open.

Okay, okay.

Okay, hold on.

What're you doing?

Get it going.

I think we're snowed under.

It's just some ice.

If it were just ice, there

would be some visibility,

wouldn't there be?

Well, at least we'll

get the engine going

and it'll help warm us up and,

and loosen the snow.

You're gonna flood it.

There's nothing to flood.

Shit.

Shit!

Okay, don't worry,

Shit!

don't worry.

Breathe, it's okay.

Got a shot through the back.

Matt.

Shit!

Matt.

Just don't worry.

Ah shit.

Matt?

Can you just give me

one second, please?

I'm sorry, baby,

I'm just trying to get my

head around this, okay?

I knew we should've

kept on driving.

I knew it, I said it!

Okay, can we calm down, please?

We should've kept on driving

at least another hour or two

to get to a village

or something.

It was freezing rain, in

the middle of the night,

should we have kept going?

We're so fucked.

Can you not be so defeatist?

What're you doing?

Getting my phone.

Come on.

Shit.

The battery is at half life.

Let me see.

Wait.

Come on, come on.

Matt, give me the phone.

Hold on one minute.

Matt, just give me the phone.

Matt!

We need to save the battery.

Can we please not argue?

Okay, I'm sorry.

I just need a few minutes

and I will get us

out of this, okay?

Okay.

Let's see where we are.

What food do we have?

Chicken, cheese, and

a herring sandwich.

Here we go, here we go.

Okay.

All right.

All right, we're on this road

and we're somewhere between

here and here, okay?

Someone is going to pass by.

Can we please not panic?

Hmm.

Okay.

Never know when ice is tight.

What?

Shit.

What's wrong?

My back.

Oh shit.

Okay, you know what?

Come back here.

There's more space.

Come on, come on.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

You want your legs up here?

Yeah.

How she doing?

She's fine.

She keeps on

kicking, she's okay.

How about you?

Fine, this is, uh,

this is absurd.

Yeah.

What're you doing?

The rental guy said there was a,

there was a roadside kit.

Okay, can we get...

Oh yeah.

Two, three, four.

Here we go.

There we go.

Yay.

And we have light.

Yes.

Now we could clearly see

the shit storm we're in.

No, this is good, it

means we have air.

I'm kidding.

How is that?

It's really good.

Yeah?

Yeah.

Want some?

Shit.

Matt?

I have to pee.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay, um.

What are you doing?

I got something.

Yeah,

yeah.

Just ball this up and go on it.

You're kidding.

It's what my mother did

when she was bedridden.

I had to keep

changing the towels.

That's disgusting.

You're okay?

Sorry.

I just peed on a towel.

12 days

and only two bottles of water.

That's what we

have to survive on.

What about these,

um, these chocolates?

No, we're not eating those.

That's the only thing

my sister's asked for.

So any ideas how we're getting

out of here with this stuff?

I don't think we

should get out of here.

Matt,

we have to try and get out of

here, we can't just stay here.

I think we should break the

window and use it to dig.

I think that's a

really bad idea.

Why?

Because we don't know

what's out there.

Look, I'm not some kind

of an expert or anything

but I think we should

stay right here.

That's not really

much of a plan.

Okay then try your phone again.

I did, twice.

We're gonna freeze in here.

And you don't think we're

gonna freeze out there?

Come on, at least

we're enclosed.

We've, we've got candlelight,

we have blankets for warmth,

we have body heat.

And what if no one is

out there looking for us?

What if it hasn't even

stopped snowing yet?

If we don't show up

to your book signing...

I can't believe you.

What?

What is so wrong with that?

I can't fucking

believe this.

What's wrong with it

If the weather is as bad

is that you should've,

as you say it is,

or else we wouldn't be

then who's gonna show uC

in this situation at all!

to your book signing anyway?

This is insane.

No, what's insane

is traipsing around

the frozen wilderness,

with a pregnant lady

following the North Star,

hoping we're gonna find a

Fairfield Inn or something.

I just need you

to trust me, okay?

Okay.

Okay then.

We're gonna need more layers.

Okay.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Did you eat?

I'm not even hungry.

What, shit, shit.

What, what is it?

Fuck!

Calm down.

You have to put the cap back on.

I'm sorry, it was an accident.

You just...

I just what?

I just what, Matt?

Nothing.

Nothing.

Great.

Great.

Good morning to you.

Sorry, we just need

to be more careful.

Listen.

What?

Hello?

Hey!

Hey!

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

Hey!

Hey!

We're down here!

In here!

We're here!

Hey!

Hey!

Hey!

Ssh.

We in here.

Hello!

Hello!

Hello!

Hello!

Hello!

Hello!

Are you okay?

Hey.

Are you okay?

Come here.

Nowhere.

Hey.

Ssh, it's okay, okay?

It's gonna be okay.

It's gonna be okay.

Okay.

Hello?

Daddy.

Daddy!

Naomi?

Daddy, it's Naomi.

Oh my God, oh my God.

We're stuck.

Is your dad on the phone?

We're in Norway.

Norman?

We're in, we're under some snow

and I don't really

know where we are, dad.

Norman?

Norman we're buried

on the side of a road.

Daddy, can you hear me?

We are 50 miles east

of our hotel.

Can you hear me?

Give me the phone.

Dad.

Give me the...

Dad.

It's dead.

Why didn't you wake me up?

This was our one chance,

do you know that?

It's getting colder in here.

I know.

We came all this way for

my stupid book signing.

No.

Don't think like that.

Keep your strength up.

You have to eat too.

I'm fine.

What's gonna happen

when the food runs out?

I'm getting close

on this window.

If I can crack it just a few

inches, we could scrape it.

We'll eat the snow.

And eat our way out?

Matthew, we have

to break a window,

we have to start digging.

Do you know what's out there?

Do you know?

Once it's broken, it's broken.

Then what?

Do you remember that story

about that guy from Africa

whose boat capsized?

He survived for weeks

in an air pocket.

No food, nothing.

He stayed put.

You fucking baffle me.

"It'll be fine, sweetheart,

"we'll just pull

right over here,

"we'll drive to the

hotel in the morning."

We both agreed that

it was not a good idea

to drive aimlessly

through the night.

But it was a good idea to

fall asleep during a blizzard!

Did you know we

were gonna wake up

in the middle of the

next fucking Ice Age?

What is your problem?

What are you doing?

What?

Breathe, what's wrong?

What's happening?

Is it the baby?

Naomi?

Naomi?

Pills are in my bag.

We're supposed to be partners.

Just leave it.

Were you ever gonna tell me?

It's not your problem.

We can't be up each

other's asses all the time.

That's being up

each other's asses?

Yes.

People have secrets.

What the fuck does that mean?

Tell me.

What secrets?

Just...

Drop it.

Please.

I think we should

write a letter,

for when we're discovered.

No.

I think we should

consider the possibility.

I don't wanna hear that.

Is that what you've

been so busy writing?

It's not your business.

It is my business.

You don't get to make those

decisions for both of us.

What did you write?

What did you write?

I wrote a stupid story, okay?

About?

A woman in Paris.

Paris.

It's a bit more glamorous

than a giant heap

of snow in Norway.

And?

And she's a helpless

old lady who lives alone

and gets stuck in her bathroom.

Okay?

Go on.

She starts banging on the walls

and clanking on the pipes,

and she even opens her

window and starts yelling,

and nothing.

But the neighbors, they

complain about the noise,

and nothing happens.

Until finally,

when the landlord needs

to collect his rent,

it's when he breaks down

her door and finds her.

Is she alive?

She was barely alive.

Thank you.

But he evicted her.

It is funny, though, who

gets stuck in a bathroom?

Probably the same idiots

who fall asleep

during a blizzard.

Hey!

Help!

Help!

Hey, help!

Hey!

Help me!

Hey!

Help!

Help!

Matt, Matt, stop.

Fuck!

Fuck!

Fuck!

Fuck!

It's okay.

No.

Listen, you were

right, you were right.

Vehicles pass by here,

someone else is gonna come.

No one's coming, no

one else will come.

I can't catch a fucking break.

What are you saying right now?

I got fired.

You said you had vacation time.

No.

No, what else can I say, I suck.

I was ashamed, okay?

Fucking shamed, is that

what you need to hear?

What did you want me to say?

Hey, hey look I know the book

isn't off to a great start

and I lost my job,

but great news,

we're gonna have a baby.

Don't turn this around on me.

No.

You're doing this

because you lied.

This isn't about me or the baby.

No, no, no, you never

wanted this baby,

that's why you're still

taking your pills.

Don't you dare!

Don't you fucking dare!

Don't try to tell me how I

feel about having my child!

Then why?

Why are you still

taking your pills?

I brought the pills in

case of an emergency,

what this fucking is!

I'm trying to do

things the right way,

I'm trying to do it everything

the right way, what the fuck!

Except drugging our unborn

child, that's okay, right?

That doesn't cross,

hey, stop it!

Stop it!

Stop it!

Is this what you want, huh?

You want me to lash into you?

Is it?

Get the fuck off me.

Get off me.

What?

Nothing.

Naomi!

What the hell is wrong with you?

Naomi, stop!

Leave me alone!

We're gonna freeze in here,

what the hell is wrong with you?

Stay the fuck away from me!

Oh, God dammit!

What are you doing?

Burning up.

What are you doing?

Stop!

I know!

What did you do to me?

What did you do to me?

Stop it.

No, no, no, stop it, stop it.

Stop it.

Get off of me.

Get off, get off of me!

It's me, it's me.

Get off!

I'm right here.

Let me out!

Let me out!

You can't get out, okay?

I'm not trying to hurt you.

Please, I don't want

you to hurt yourself.

What?

What is it?

What is it?

Is it the baby?

No?

What is it?

You need to talk to me.

Is this the first

time you felt this?

Why didn't you tell me anything?

I don't know ,

I don't know,

I can't feel anything.

Okay, okay.

I think you're hypothermic,

okay, we need to warm you up.

We need to warm you up, okay?

There you go, there you go.

There you go.

Okay, okay.

Baby,

here, here, here.

There you go.

There you go.

Come on.

Okay, come on, gotta

put your energy up.

Come on, eat, eat, come on.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

It's happening,

it's happening again.

I think this is it.

No.

No, no, I can't, I can't

do this now.

I can't.

I don't think we have

much of a choice, baby.

I can't do it, I

can't.

Matt, it's coming.

Okay.

Naomi, you gotta push!

Come on, one more push.

One more push, come on, baby.

Come on.

Come on.

What is it?

I can't.

Please.

You gotta push, baby.

Push, okay?

Come on.

Pancakes.

Buttermilk pancakes.

With salted butter.

And maple syrup.

And crispy bacon.

Okay.

Oh,

like uh,

applewood smoked

bacon that you just

scoop up some maple syrup.

Waffles.

Belgian waffles.

So crispy and golden with

ever so slightly runny eggs.

Oh, I hate runny eggs.

I love you so much.

I love you.

Babe?

Hmm?

We haven't named her yet.

No, we haven't.

What do you wanna name her?

You make the call.

How about Olivia?

Like your sister?

No.

It's perfect.
