THE HORDE

35 YEARS AGO

THE DAY THE OLD DAM BROKE

Serge, Toni, come here!

What are you doing?

What's wrong with you?

I can't believe this.

Are you out of your mind?

You're going to get it.

Louis!

Come on.



We've been looking for you.
Don't go into the tents.

Go play back there.
You take care of your brother.

They're murderers.

All of them!

No one could have seen this coming.

Otherwise,
they would have evacuated us.

They'll come back for revenge.

- Who?
- Them.

The dead.

ONE WEEK AGO

TODAY

Hey.

You didn't sleep?

He never sleeps.



Did you get some rest?

Not really.

What's that?

What is it?

Did you see people near the car?

- Who were they?
- Don't know.

Were there many of them?

Did they speak?

- What did they want?
- To take me with them.

What's he doing?

Wait.

Come back here.

Stay here.

Come.

Step aside, Julie.

What the hell?

He shot a police officer.

It's ready!

- What are those drawings?
- It's none of your business.

Why did you draw that?

- Who's that woman?
- You know who she is.

You wanted to be with Simon.

I want to see him.

- I want to see Simon.
- He's gone.

He wouldn't, not without us.

He must be hiding.

- Maybe he's with the others.
- What makes you think that?

- Victor told me.
- What did he say?

He's dead too.

Listen to me,
stay away from that boy.

And Simon.

- Why?
- They're dangerous.

- I want to see my father.
- Thomas is your father.

Let go of me!

Stay here!

Open the door!

Did I sleep?

What?

Finally!

It's gotten worse?

I'll take care of it.

THERE SHALL BE NO MORE DEATH,
NEITHER SORROW, NOR CRYING, NOR PAIN

Who wrote that?

Can't they go somewhere else?

- Here you go.
- Thank you.

How are you?

- Can I help you?
- I don't want your pity.

You know what I want?

I want those freaks out of here.

Eat.

It's not their fault.

Are you blind?

The Koretzkys killed themselves
because of what Camille told them.

My baby died because of them.

All of this is because of them.

Listen to me.

Nobody here will ever be able
to understand your pain.

But it's unfair
to blame Camille and the others.

It's easy to tell ourselves
that they're dangerous.

But how could they be responsible
for what's happening?

They need our help.

The Helping Hand helps everyone.

So it must remain.

It's you.

You came and helped me in the tunnel.

You saved me.

Why did you want to jump?

I wanted to be with my brother.

Get in the car!

What are you doing here?

Nothing, I'm done.

Who let you in?

Don't worry, I'm already gone.

Don't move.

Freeze!

I had to warn you.

Go, see you later.

What do you want?

I wanted to thank you
for helping Camille.

We're here to help
those who come to the Helping Hand.

What are those for?

We won't be unarmed if necessary.

Words are not always enough.

I've always thought you were insane.

Don't forget Camille.

She's counting on you.

Can I?

What are those losers doing here?

They're worried about you.

They're like Sandrine and the others.

As if I needed them.

Maybe they're right.

Maybe I'm putting you at risk.

I'm sure you're not.

What about those in the forest?

What if I became like them?

Mom told you about them?

How do you know?

I just know.

You were terrified?

Pierre has hidden guns.
He won't hesitate to use them.

So?

What will you do
if Camille is in danger?

Will you just sit and wait?

You knew?

We have to leave this place now.

Leave?

Run away?

That's so like you.

You've never been able
to face reality.

My sadness, Léna's anger...

And you want run away once again.

She's not safe here.

She'll never be safe,
wherever she goes.

Running away is not the solution.

Were they those
near the car last night?

Are they like you?

- What are you doing?
- I have to warn the squad.

- What about Victor?
- He can't stay with us.

You're going to put him in jail?

Your rebellion was short-lived.

Stop.

Stop!

- What are you doing?
- We're leaving.

Are you crazy?

I wasn't dreaming.

You saw them too.

They weren't necessarily
going to attack us.

He said it, they want him back.

I know you.

You used to live in the hamlet.

You're dead, aren't you?

I was at your funeral.

There were pictures of you
and your brother.

My brother's dead too.

He came back, just like you.

You killed your brother.

You killed your mom too.

I didn't.

She died of sorrow because of you.

He was sick.

I had to stop him.

What are you gonna do?

Me, nothing.

What are you doing?

Taking my revenge.

Nobody saw him leave?

Most men are patrolling in town
to prevent any looting.

Gather everyone.

It's me.

What are you doing?

Everything's fine.
Don't worry.

Who's that?

A friend.

She's like you?

Tell her to let go of Chloé!

Your parents need to talk.

Let her go!

Let her go!

Calm down.

I'd never hurt our children.

Our children?

You're pregnant.

- What are you talking about?
- Don't worry.

It will be fine, this time.

I'll be with you.

Stay away.

Open the door!

- The hospital is closed.
- You came to the right place.

Stay here.

There's everything you need.

- But I can't...
- Help her!

She'll need you.

Lie him on his side.

I'm glad to see you.

Come with me.

It's best for everyone.

Camille, wait!

You called me Camille?

Can't you see it's not me?

Does it hurt?

I don't scare you anymore?

I loved you so much.

You loved me too?

What the hell?

Get lost!

If you tell anyone...

They took her with them.

They took her.

Where is he?

If you're looking for Simon,
he's not here.

- What about the others?
- We're open to everyone.

You're putting people at risk.

On the contrary,
everyone here is safe.

Otherwise,
they would have left already.

Captain.

Tell him what you said.

I saw them.

There were a hundred of them,
maybe more.

They were heading
for the Helping Hand.

Don't worry.

They're probably more scared
than we are.

Where's Julie?

Don't worry.
She'll be back.

- You should sleep.
- I can't.

Come here.

I'm sure you can do it.

Close your eyes.

Close your eyes.

Think about your mom.

It's bedtime.

What's wrong?

I'm afraid of having my nightmare.

Don't worry.

You're going to have sweet dreams.

And my room is just next to yours.

But if I have a nightmare,
you can't come for me.

Of course I can.

But what if you die someday?

I'm not going to die.

Don't worry.

And if I'm not around,
there's the fairy.

- Is she real?
- Sure.

She'll keep you safe
until I come for you.

How will I know it's her?

You'll know.

Good night, sweetie.

What happened to him?

You're not here.

- What the fuck happened?
- You're in my head.

Help him!

Fucking help him!

It's all right.

Why did you stop?
Keep going.

Keep going.

There's nothing we can do.

It's over.

It's pointless.

It's over.

They're coming.

Wait.

Let me talk to her.

Where's Chloé?

With her dad.

Don't worry about her.

We were expecting you.

- You're all welcome.
- Thanks, but we're not staying.

What do you want?

We want the others.

Let them go.

But why?

- You can all...
- You'll let Chloé go?

Of course.

You don't need to be afraid.
I can help you.

We don't need your help.

Come with me, please.

Let him go.

Don't touch him!
Stay away!

Let go of him!

All right!

All right.

I'm going with him.

Suit yourself.

What are you doing?

I told you.
I won't leave him.

Wait.

Stay with me.

I'm begging you.

They won't hurt me.

Step aside.

Certainly not.

Fuck off!

Fuck off!

Do something!

Please do something!

It's hopeless.

They're like them.
She's like them.

If they don't go, they'll hurt us.

I'm going with her.

Take everyone inside.

You said they meant us no harm.

Someone's missing.

Who?

Adèle.

What about her?

She has to come with us.

Or we'll go after her.

Get inside.

- Close the building.
- All right, Captain.

Stay inside and don't open to anyone.

All right, Captain.

It's OK, sweetheart.

They're after you.

What?

They want your baby.
