I am Otto, yes!

What did he say?

He says you won.

Won what?

The competition in Paris.

-The Cube?
-Yes.

He asks what the building will be used for.

Do you think they're
going to pay for everything?

Of course.

Even the minibar?

Yes, otherwise we'll pay.

That's no longer a problem.

-He's asking for 50,000 francs?
-Yes.

There was never a marriage.

Nor a niece.

There is an error.
It says 25 instead of 2.5.

This is not a mistake.
I asked for 25 million.

In fees?

They're going to find that excessive.
Especially without an agency.

Anyone can have an agency.

You have a vision.

They're going to take it
for a provocation.

In my opinion.

There will be negotiations.

You know them,
They love to chat.

We need a margin,
and I prefer to negotiate from the top.

But 25 million francs,
This is madness.

Listen to me carefully.

The Cube is estimated
to 1.3 billion francs.

Less than 10% is required.

That's very reasonable.

Look at.

You must not give them your rights.

What does that mean?

The copyright must belong to you.

If someone photographs the Cube,
He owes you royalties.

But the Cube will be part of it
of the urban landscape.

Yes.

But that doesn't change anything.
That it is an original work.

With copyright.

Why would it be any different?
Of a sculptor or a visual artist?

-Is that legal?
-There is a legal ambiguity.

Listen, you drew the Cube.

You created it.

It's your work.

Why you should give in
Your copyright?

No one should have ever asked that.

Never.

No one has ever won yet
such a competition.

Please excuse me,

but despite the admiration
that I have for your work,

what you are proposing
is impossible for me.

The Cube is my life's work.

All my work, my research,
my very life,

led me to this drawing.

I say this modestly.
But if we collaborate,

There must be a hierarchy between us.

I understand.

My wife needs to modify the model.

The glass facades must be
absolutely smooth.

Okay, but we'll never have
a perfectly smooth surface.

We'll have to find a way.

There will always be discrepancies,
It's inevitable.

In my church in Stavnsholt,
The altar is monumental.

For each face, I created a plate
4m² of perfectly smooth surface,

from four separate samples.

Is your altar 4m²?

Per side, yes.

We need to fill two hectares
vertically.

-I know, I drew it.
-Of course.

If it's possible in a laboratory setting,

It's possible on a large scale.

That's the principle of experimentation.

It is up to us to find the solutions.

Let's not give up
before it had even begun.

-It will be complicated.
-Yes, but I like a challenge.

So it is possible.

Of course.

I did a lot of tests
And there is only one solution,

It's glued glass.
With silicone glue.

There is no fixing,
nor any visible seam.

That's exactly what I want.

My builder told me
that it's impossible.

-Who is it?
-Paul Andrew.

I appreciate it, but I feel
that he takes refuge behind technology.

We know each other very well.
Tell him to call me.

I would be delighted to invite
you to Boston see the tower.

It's going to be complicated.

For what?

Because Subilon wants to start
the construction As soon as possible.

The Cube will be around for centuries.

But we need to start right away.

We have a Chinese saying.

-What does that mean?
-If it's urgent, take your time.

That's very true.

Otherwise, what do you think?
Of my Pyramid?

I think it will be great.

You wanted to meet me.

And on the phone,
You told me about solutions.

They interest me more
than the problems I already know about.

You have a problem
with the glass glued on?

Yes, indeed.

News travels fast.

Today, it's glass.

Tomorrow will be something else.

The elevators,
security access points.

Not to mention the marble.

No, the marble is too important.
I identified some varieties in Tuscany.

Never mind.
If you keep your current team,

you will be trapped in a power struggle

which will always be to your disadvantage,

whatever the subject.

So what?

What do you suggest?

With Subilon, you won't achieve anything.

Do I have a choice?

Of course.

You could argue
a clash of personalities.

And I'll take care of the rest.

I have some financial proposals to make.
And support among elected officials.

I built all the towers
of the Ministry of Defence.

I want to do it
the largest business district in Europe.

Larger than the City of London.

And your Cube
It will be the cornerstone.

His manifesto.

If you entrust me with your project,

I will help you build your Cube

exactly as you imagined it.

Do you see who it is?

I imagine so.

Quite.
That's what I want.

Exactly.

To create breathing,

an opening in the inside
closed offices.

And why?

Because it will be too hot.

That's wrong.

Paris is not Kuala Lumpur.

You have built too many airports.
In the countries of the Global South.

If your computers have taken
all the decisions are made for us.

My presence here is no longer required.

I'm in charge of the marble.

If they do it again,
The damage will be irreversible.

I want you to go back and attend
attend and monitor the meetings.

They are trying to confuse us.

-Do you want to go to Italy now?
-Yes, might as well.

-On?
-Yes.

I'm looking for a marble
which turns pink at sunset.

Then the one from Carrara is perfect.

The more nitrates a stone contains,

the more she reacts
in warm colors.

Our Carrara marble
it is naturally rich in it.

The more nitrates there are in the stone,

The more she reacts to warm colors.

This is the case with Carrara marble.

I didn't know it was due to nitrates.

I would like to cover this facade.

As well as the one on the other side.

What is the height here?

From here to there, it's 111 meters.

Like the pyramids of Giza.

And I also want to cover the floors.

It's going to be 1000 m², right?

1000 m² for each side,
That's 2000 m².

-Plus the soils?
-It'll be almost the same.

You would therefore need
Between 3 and 4 hectares of marble?

Yes, absolutely.

It's a lot, I know.

That's 5000 tons of marble.

At a minimum.

Could you extract them?

Of course.
We do it often.

Our career is immense.

I'll show you.

The marble for the Pietà comes from
exactly from the career

that we visited this morning.

Michelangelo himself
was held in the very spot where you were.

600 years earlier,
Michelangelo was here.

The marble of his Pietà

comes from Carrara.

Specifically, from our career.

-From here?
-Yes.

-You could have crossed paths.
-Well...

We wish the Cube the same posterity
than that of the Pietà.

Look.

From here you can see very well

that the summit of this mountain

in the form of Piety.

You can recognize
the form of Piety.

Michelangelo was not
Such a great artist.

Everything was right there.

He didn't invent anything.

To Michelangelo.

Cubed.

Over to you.

We received this.
I believe this is for you.

THANKS.
It could have waited until tomorrow.

It was my pleasure to bring it to you.

Are you going to work?

No, I'm going to sleep.
I'll look at it tomorrow.

Do you want to have one last drink?
In honor of your marble?

That's very kind
But I need rest.

-Good night.
-Good night.

I'm sorry
But I really need to sleep.

This is for you.

-In my opinion?
-The telephone.

He's the man who sent you the fax.

So.

Yes?

You prioritize technique over the artwork.
For me, it's the opposite.

Andreu is satisfied with your marble.

Subilon consentira à le payer.
That's the most important thing.

You can let them handle it.

Non.

This marble is perfect.
I don't want them to touch it.

You're putting too much
emotion into this marble.

-Non.
-Yes.

You are in love.

You're in love with your marble
So you're overreacting.

I'm not overreacting.

And I am not
in love with my marble.

I am in love with you.

-Subilon on the phone.
-Not now.

He has already called several times
This morning.

Think of it like a musical score...

Think of it like a musical score.

We hear the notes one by one
and we discover them gradually.

The mural will be a symphony of colors
which cannot be grasped all at once

but in successive stages,

creating a perception,
a gradual sensation.

I could call it
"Symphony for a Cube"

or "Symphonic Arc".

Look at.

It's fabulous.

-Otto.
-Yes?

You need to call him back.

We need concentration.

-It seems urgent.
-Tell him I'm working on his Cube.

And we need to let the ideas...

I cannot be disturbed like this.

I thought you had abandoned me.

I wanted to see the President.

And I was told he wasn't there.

Do you think this is also a trap?

Juppé is forcing us to sell.

But even if all the spaces are sold,
We would be far from reaching 3.5 billion.

And he knows it.

That is why Subilon is so desperate.
He quickly did his calculations.

The Cube was not designed
to be profitable.

That was never the idea.

But it can become so.

We need to build more offices.

Which offices?
There were only the CICOM offices.

CICOM no longer exists.

But if we add 15 floors,

the spaces created
will be able to finance the operation.

We must not modify
the geometry of the Cube.

That would call into question
the entire urban harmony of the project.

The Cube is a cube, Andreu.

If you change it,
It's no longer a cube.

You are disfiguring the project
to make it your own.

-You're stealing my Cube.
-No, I'm trying to save him...

That's wrong!

You want to damage it
by all means.

A project is never set in stone,
You know that.

It is evolving and we
must move forward with it.

Your double-dealing is despicable.
You are a thief.

Life?

-They must be put on trial.
-What time is it?

-We must attack them.
-Who?

They want to disfigure the Cube.
Andreu wanted to add 15 floors.

He's completely delusional.

It's 1 a.m. We...

We have a contract.
We'll attack them tomorrow.

-Who?
-All.

Even Mitterrand is leading us on.

He is no longer responsible for anything.

It's as if I don't exist.

But we have a contract.
The Cube is inalienable.

-Do you want to attack a state?
-France is being put on trial.

-They will pay.
-They've already paid you.

They will compensate us
if they do not keep their promises.

Tomorrow, you sue them.

It's the same.

Non!

You do it tomorrow morning.

If we don't attack,
They will eat us alive.

They are cannibals, savages...

I know, but it's complicated
to attack a state.

We need to sleep
and we'll find the best one...

Andreu and Subilon are attacked.

They need to understand
that their actions have consequences.

They think they can get away with anything.
And they despise me.

But now, we're fighting back.

We have the right on our side.
We have all the drawings.

All the competition entries
are public.

They cannot contest them.

So the Cube, the little cubes,

and the clouds must be built.

It must be built as planned.

Otherwise, it's an obstacle to my work.

An impediment to my integrity,
to my artistic integrity,

to me.

We talked about marble yesterday
but never change it!

It's not white, it's grey!

Why didn't you say anything?
On marble?

What?

What happened?

You thought it would be better
to tell me nothing?

What do you imagine?

What are you talking about?

They replaced the marble.

Stop acting like an idiot.

I wasn't aware of that.

How could I have known?

I told you to keep an eye on them.

I told you they're plotting
behind my back.

You need to keep an eye on them
But you let them do it.

-That's wrong.
-That was your role!

You were the one who should have done that!

How do I do it?
If I can no longer trust you?

Don't yell at me, Otto.

I refuse.

You need to calm down.

How do I do it?

-Of course you can trust me.
-Apparently not.

Clearly not.

You can't say that.

This is unacceptable.

Did you file a complaint?

Non.

You see?

You're no longer on my side.

If you are no longer on my side,
There's nobody left.

And I am completely alone.

-There's nobody left.
-Otto.

I find myself alone surrounded by idiots.
Of gangsters and thugs.

What's going on?

You can see, I'm leaving.

Pardon.

I beg your pardon, Liv.

Yes.

But that doesn't change anything.
The way you spoke to me.

It won't happen again.

Of course it won't happen again.

But it hurts me when people yell at me.

It breaks something inside me.
Do you understand?

Yes.

Non, Liv, attends.

You ask for forgiveness and I hear you.

But I'm still damaged.

Please wait a moment.

Just a moment.

I cannot live like this.

A project is a single idea.

But a powerful idea.

Here, the arrangement of the beams
changes depending on the floor.

In this direction and in that direction

to open onto a very beautiful staircase

which passes through the building.

It's beautiful, it works well.

That's very good.

You didn't understand the program.

That's the wrong scale.

And you did not respect
the choice of materials.

Are you ready?
To work in France.

I gave you a good rating
despite everything

because I feel a great passion
in the project.

That remains the most important thing.

I congratulate you on your projects

because they each have their own identity.

And that's essential.

The next step,

it will be about integrating
the client's requests.

Sir, may I speak with you?

Yes.

You don't want to
to talk about Paris,

but we want to start a petition
against the black bars.

Which black bars?

Those who will be in place
of your little cubes.

When I saw that they were black,
I was very surprised.

Don't even think about it.

I signed a document which formalizes
the end of my collaboration.

This is no longer my project.

But they betray your idea.

These bars will be very close
of your Cube.

This is no longer my Cube.

I've put that behind me.

His grave should be
to the east of the cemetery.

Where is it?

I think it's this way.

We just came from
But we found nothing.

He may be
to the paupers' square?

THANKS.

Who was it?

A great architect.
