Escape from Paradise Page #2

Synopsis: A giant turtle floats through space and reads its book. He meets Adam and Eve, who take over the book and rip the still empty pages from it. But by doing so they set free all unwritten ideas from which objects begin to grow and fill the world of Adam and Eve. When eventually these objects take over their world, Adam and Eve escape. They will end where they started, meeting a giant turtle who shuts his book. It is a film about technological development and man's control or loss of control over it. It is about man's wish for more, faster, better and newer and about losing control over an ever - and fast changing world filled with ideas, plans and inventions.

It's always me calling you.

- Are you ready for the lesson?

- No.

But we have a test tomorrow.

So, anatomy or physiology?

Anatomy.

- Where were we?

- Facial muscles.

- We're monsters under our skin!

- It's good thing we have it.

You were great, I even recorded

it last year when we first met.

Come on.

If you think it's so beautiful,

then touch it.

Go on, caress me.

- Where are you going?

- Bye.

Come back.

- Here I am, Theo, I'm back.

- You're beautiful.

- Now look at me close up.

- You're even more beautiful.

But I might be made of rubber, ice...

How do you know?

- Can I study with you?

- Leave us alone.

You always come at the wrong time,

go and study with Silvio.

Okay, I get it, you two

always want to be alone.

What a pain.

You know something...

When my mother strokes me...

I imagine it's Beatrice's hand.

The other night, I so longed to

be in my father's place...

- With you close to me.

- I don't know what to do, Theo...

I can't take it,

I can't sleep anymore...

I think about us,

day and night.

So do I, Beatrice.

But there's nothing we can do.

Please don't torment yourself like this.

Let's hope our friends enjoy

themselves tonight.

I always find these evenings

incredibly tedious.

You're right, it's hard to

enjoy yourself these days.

It's enough to send you asleep.

Father's medallion!

Beatrice.

Where are you?

I'm here.

- I was resting.

- It's my father's medallion.

- All the councilors have one.

- Is your father asleep?

No, he's dining out with

his colleagues.

They'll be back late,

we have all the time we need.

- I can't open it.

- Leave it.

No, we have to see what's inside.

- It might be nothing.

- There has to be something.

- You'll never open it.

- Sure I will.

Damn it.

I did it!

Look what's inside.

- See, I was right.

- It's a micro-video disc.

What are you doing with

that old player?

- What are you doing?

- What do you mean? I want to see.

Your father will be upset.

That's my father's voice!

But how do I decode it?

Just type in anything.

Come on, hurry.

Look at all those people.

What could it be?

It looks like a game

Do you notice something strange?

It's true, they're playing,

but they're all together.

And the ones who are watching,

and they're all there together...

How is that possible?

I don't know.

Why didn't my father ever

tell me about this?

Wait, let's try another code.

It looks like images from the simulator.

- What are they?

- 'Bear', what a strange word.

- They aren't things, they move.

- They're alive.

They're not human beings,

and they're all together as well, look!

They look like big mirrors resting

on the ground.

- Look, one of Golem's ancestors.
