April and the Extraordinary World Page #6

Synopsis: In 1941, the world is radically different from the one we know from history books. Geopolitics has developed strangely: Napoleon V rules France and, for the last 70 years, scholars have been mysteriously disappearing, depriving mankind of their inventions. Without radio, television, electricity, aviation, and the combustion engine, the world is mired in outdated technology, dozing in the previous century's knowhow dominated by coal and steam. In this bizarre universe, Avril (Marion Cotillard), a teenage girl, Darwin (Philippe Katerine), her talking cat, Pops (Jean Rochefort), her grandfather, and Julius (Marc-André Grondin), a young scoundrel and police informer, go off in search of Avril's parents, two of the missing scientists. The quartet will face many dangers and mysteries in this strange new Rigged World.

THE MYSTERIES OF PARIS

I hope you don't

expect me to clean up this mess.

Darwin?

You're, you're cured!

Hey, that tickles!

Ha!

Is this even possible?

With this, it is. I just swallowed some,

and now I'm fine!

Hold on, you just drank this

liquid and now you're cured?

This globe, my mother gave it

to me the last time I saw her.

The serum!

My parents never got to test the

last version of their serum!

I don't know how

they got it in here,

but you drank it! Darwin!

My parents actually did it!

The Ultimate Serum

really works!

And let me tell you, it's

better than chicken soup!

I feel like

I swallowed a panther!

Ya-whoo!

Hmm.

You may applaud.

Huh?

You! What are you doing here?

Nothing, just admiring

the view! Help me!

Oh! Thank you.

That was a close one.

I think I may need

to change my underwear.

So, Romeo,

was it love that made

you climb the balcony?

Are you spying on me?

I told you

to leave me alone!

Uh, and is that also

part of your act, too?

My little sparrow!

It's your father!

Can't be...

April, listen to me!

I don't have much time!

You're in danger!

They're coming for you!

Leave immediately! The oak! Go to the

big oak tree as fast as you can!

With any luck...

Darwin!

Sorry, feline instinct.

I can't control it.

What is this thing?

And how?

Father is alive?

Uh, something's

going on outside.

We have to go. Right now!

Why? What is it?

Huh?

Phew!

Uh, where're

you going?

Your place. Smart guy like you

must live somewhere nice.

You can put us up for

the night. Thank you!

What? Is there a problem?

You don't like people

stopping by unannounced?

And don't get any ideas!

There'll be no more exchanging saliva!

I'll sleep on my side

and Darwin'll stand guard!

Hmm. I think she likes you.

So, where do you live?

- What happened?

- You're back.

How's the rat?

Got him back.

He's at the lab.

What's happening?

We were about to get the serum

and she took off like

she knew we were coming.

Exactly. One of the scientists

took control of the spy rat!

Come, I have everything ready.

My love, you are far

too lenient with the humans!

These scientists have too much freedom!

This one should be punished!

Brutality

is against our principles.

Paul Franklin,

stand up, please.

You erased your transmission.

What did you

tell your daughter?

You know as I know, this project can

finally be finished with April's help.

Where can we find her?

In a few moments,

you're going to be smiling a lot less

and talking a lot more.

Rodrigue.

Merely warning him, my dear.

Paul, if you won't tell us,

then maybe you'll be more

talkative with someone else.

You can come in now.

Nice place!
