11,329 DAYS BEFORE IMPACT

Go and get me some cigarettes.

Let's leave, Mum, he'll be asleep soon. Come, quick.

Mum, please.

He is your father. - Deniz!

Where are my cigarettes?

EIGHT DAYS

You really want to leave on that boat?

I'm not sure...

What about your family?

Maybe these guys are right.

And if not, I'll still be with him.

But he's a total nutcase.

So what about you? Are you going back to your dad?

Come with us, then.

Drop me a line when you've reached the light.

We are born from water.

Horus...

is born from water, too.

We are Horus.

We are the light.

And Heaven does exist.

You're right.

We're going to Heaven.

I want to believe, like the others.

But I just don't understand.

Did you feel this?

Then you don't need to understand.

You know...

Sometimes it's not about how long you live.

Pepper was happy and content because you loved him so much.

You even took him to Russia with you.

Yes.

I'LL NEVER FORGET YOU

Bye, Pepper.

It'll be fine, Herrmann.

Sure? - Sure. Don't worry.

As long as you're with me, it'll be fine.

My husband.

I'll always be there for you.

Always.

Are you OK?

We'll measure the cervix now.

It won't start for some time yet.

Why don't you join Jonas?

You'll hear when something happens.

What I said yesterday was...

I was drunk and jealous.

You have a great family.

That takes some doing.

Husband...

father...

My father wasn't a good father.

He was...

He beat my mother to death on my 18th birthday

and disappeared in Turkey.

I had to bury her on my own.

Where's the justice in that?

Justice would have been...

if someone had bashed his head in before he...

You know,

a policeman fights for the law, but...

a good policeman fights for what's right.

The...

bunker... - Yes, the bunker.

Susanne... - Yes.

But that arsehole doesn't deserve Susanne.

Don't move too much.

Unload this. What's this?

You shouldn't have guns.

You still got your posh rifle.

What did you say?

You heard me.

Calm down, Klaus. - I am calm!

We need to defend ourselves. And we're more.

They are my weapons, you arsehole!

You're not the boss anymore.

We are the survivors!

You imbecile. - Drive!

You stupid arsehole.

Piss off, I'm telling you!

Wanker, unbelievable...

Arseholes.

In the early hours of the morning,

18 hours before the predicted impact of asteroid Horus,

the German Army Musical Corps has gathered in Republic Square,

for one last Grand Tattoo.

The entire Cabinet appearing in front of the German people...

How's it going, big man?

...must be seen as a final conciliatory gesture.

Are you sad because Marion's having a baby?

No... no.

You know, you always think

you can do anything if you really want to.

But sometimes you do everything you possibly can,

and it still won't work.

It just won't work.

Well...

And that makes you sad.

Like flying to America?

Yes, for example.

So what will the baby be called?

How about Egon?

Like Grandpa.

Yes, like Grandpa.

Following the scandals and the unrest, which have recently shaken our country,

Minister Gauler has been released from office overnight.

Replacing her is long-standing Federal Chancellery member

Karl Friedrich Maiwald.

Try and breathe through the pain.

Deep breath through the nose.

Get Uncle Herrmann.

He's gone.

What?

He drove off.

Hello? Can you tell me where your dad is?

I have a little surprise for him. We work together.

Hello?

Meissner. Sophie is deaf. I did tell you about her.

What do you want here, anyway?

You piece of shit. Did you think you could trick me?

Karl?

Darling? Have you met?

Herrmann Meissner. - Hello.

Karl, from tomorrow we'll sit in a...

Patrizia.

We won't be long.

Come, let's go to my office. Would you like a beer?

Darling, get our guest a beer.

How can... - Away from the desk!

I don't have a gun in there. - Shut up!

You want a bunker place. - And for my family.

You messed it up. How did the journalist get the documents?

Cheating bastard!

You screwed it up.

You're a minister now, you can easily get us back on the list.

I'm only a minister in name,

there's no real government anymore.

You do this now,

or I'll ram this knife right into your smirking face, arsehole!

Do you hear me?

You think I don't have the guts?

What use am I to you if I'm dead?

What about your wife? Your little daughter?

I'm not a monster, don't force me to become one.

That's fine. Thanks.

So?

I can try to get you and your girlfriend...

My wife! We got married, arsehole.

Great, congratulations.

Plus my sister and her husband and kids, six people in total!

Who do you think I am? There's no way I can do this.

I'll kill you in the next five seconds.

You're as good as dead, believe me.

OK, all right, fine.

You and your girlfriend... wife... were on the original list.

I can try and reinstate you.

But I can't do anything else.

Then do it, now.

Yes...

This is Maiwald.

Does giving birth always hurt?

Yes, most of the time.

Was it the same for me?

Yes.

With Leonie, it happened really quickly.

But you were reluctant to come into this world.

Your dad was so nervous,

he clutched my hands so tightly, I thought they'd be bruised.

I miss Daddy.

I miss him too.

Can you get me some tea towels?

Sure. - Thank you.

Here. This might ease the pain,

it's the strongest I've got.

Slow down.

That's enough.

OK. Good.

Come on, a bit more.

Jonas.

Brilliant, that's great. Be careful.

Herrmann, where are you?

What?

At the convention centre?

OK, let's meet there. That's where you'll see him for the first time.

Herrmann has bunker places.

I'm sorry.

Jonas, we'll go and get more towels. We'll be right back.

Susanne...

Thank you.

Right, everyone get in the car.

I'm driving.

I'm driving!

Open the door!

No! No!

Give me your tickets.

Tickets? There are no tickets.

Only I can get in.

I, as myself, with my passport.

He ran over the child!

This is your last chance.

What are you going to do?

It's over.

Stop.

This is your minister.

He's the bastard who conned you out of your bunker places.

No!

Murderer!

Don't let this happen!

I'm begging you! Help!

Susanne!

Jonas, we're going to Uncle Herrmann.

What? But what about Marion?

We must help her. No! - She's fine. Be quiet now.

You can't do that! - Jonas, please.

No!

Come on now. - Please!

Get in the car. - No.

Get in, now.

Jonas! Jonas, don't!

Wait! Jonas!

No! Go away.

The baby's coming. Open the door, quick!

Please.

Marion, I'm sorry.

Get away from me. - Please.

Leave me alone. - We want to help.

Stay calm. - Get out!

Careful.

The head's there.

I can see the little head.

Now push, push hard.

Harder, harder, push.

Jonas, over here.

Put both hands on here and press hard.

Just a bit more, a bit more, yes.

That's it.

Come on.

Why won't he scream?

Congratulations.

Hello, little Egon.

Hello, my darling.

Damn it.

The Messiah.

Messiah.

The time...

is now.

Everyone hold hands.

Cast off the lines.

What's happening?

What shall we do now?

You said you could save us.

God spoke to him.

Isn't that right, Robin?

He did speak to me, through the light, the water...

Yes, I believe so.

Haven't we suffered enough?

Say something.

Do something.

Say something. - We want to go to the light.

I haven't suffered enough.

He hasn't suffered enough.

He hasn't suffered enough. - Is that the way?

Man is a cross.

A cross!

I must go on the cross!

Ben?

Where are you?

Come out, you idiot!

Leave him!

Stop, they'll kill you.

It has to be.

I won't allow for you to... - To die?

But it will be a great and beautiful death.

No, I won't leave you.

Get lost. - No.

Get lost. - Go.

You've done enough damage. - Get lost.

Robin!

No!

Hedgehog. I knew you'd come.

Are we going down, then?

Marion, I'll drive you.

I owe it to you. Please let me drive you.

No, thanks.

Wait.

Here.

Take it.

Good luck.

Mum!

Leonie!

It's all right, my darling.

What a week it's been.

Now we just have each other.

The others can piss off!

Oh, where's my head?

I forgot something, I'll be right back.

Won't be long.

Nora?

Nora! Stop it.

Put that gun down, it's loaded.

You killed him. - Who?

You killed Ben.

No.

I... I didn't kill Ben.

It was the others. You see,

these are different times.

I have to do things... - Shut up!

Stop it.

Do you want to be in this new world without a mother, a father,

any family... - Stay there!

Hedgehog...

But... we are...

the survivors...

Where's Susanne?

Where is she?

Yes... there, there.

Ten minutes to bunker closure.

I repeat, ten minutes to bunker closure.

Let go of me, I'm begging you,

please check again, let go of me.

You're not on the list.

That's not correct. Please! Let go of me!

I'm begging you. Let go of me.

The last time I did this was when you were tiny.

You're the best thing that's ever happened to me.

Come here, my darling.

Six minutes to bunker closure.

I repeat, six minutes to bunker closure.

Shit.

Four minutes to bunker closure.

I repeat, four minutes to bunker closure.

Carsten... Carsten... have another beer.

Enough. - Come on, another beer.

Here, one for Matze.

Come on, have a beer.

You don't want yours? I'll have it, then.

Cheers!

We're the survivors!

Come on. Leonie.

Come.

Hurry up!

Come. - Go inside.

Daddy? Daddy!

Oh, God.

What happened?

What about you?

There's no place for me here.

He'll explain everything.

I love you so much.

I'm sorry.

Everything will be all right.

Let me out! Let me out!

Please!

I made a mistake!

Let me past. Please!
