Blindness Page #5

Synopsis: A city is ravaged by an epidemic of instant "white blindness". Those first afflicted are quarantined by the authorities in an abandoned mental hospital where the newly created "society of the blind" quickly breaks down. Criminals and the physically powerful prey upon the weak, hoarding the meager food rations and committing horrific acts. There is, however, one eyewitness to the nightmare. A woman whose sight is unaffected by the plague follows her afflicted husband to quarantine. There, keeping her sight a secret, she guides seven strangers who have become, in essence, a family. She leads them out of quarantine and onto the ravaged streets of the city, which has seen all vestiges of civilization crumble.

Whichever what remains of morale.

You do not have anyone, forget it.

Nobody.

I will!

I'm going with it.

Me too.

Very well, very well, I will too.

Me too.

Look, do whatever you want.

But my wife will not go anywhere.

Dignity has no price.

Nobody knows how many women have here.

They can do anything you want and

food.

And then you can talk about me

dignity.

The issue is not that!

Just ...

I am not different from the others.

What?

I'll do what they do.

No, you will not.

You will do what I say!

Do not give me orders.

It has nothing worse than that.

No.

This is disgusting!

From now on it will not eat ...

... but how long before then

and it will seek other?

Out of the way!

Good night!

How many drafts?

-8

-9

Only 9?

Because it is only 9, will have to bend

the shift tonight.

Ah, if neither of you has the "footprint" ...

... do not want. Serve for another

occasion.

None has the "footprint".

Well, entam to prepare,

and that will be waiting.

The food again if they are complacent.

Meanwhile ...

Brought to you some things.

I have one more.

Here we go.

Come on.

You have no way of trying to escape.

There are guards.

At least it would be quicker and

already be dead.

Nobody is going to die, go!

Come on!

Come here!

Listen, are welcome!

Girls, do not be afraid.

We want to be.

We will not hurt them ok?

Are not rushing,

everyone will have his wife.

If not, divides us.

As with everything we do here ok?

Well, I want you to stay in line

of "hot" to "cold.

The more "hot" ... come here.

And the more "cool", go to the end of the queue.

What's happening?

Looks like a dead fish is stirring.

Oh! Dude!

I think I will stay with her.

You come with me?

Gostanto is?

Well done!

It is a mature woman, the way I like.

You like that?

It is my gun.

You like it?

No!

Madam, madam.

What a surprise, lady.

Okay, come with me.

If you say no, the break

your neck OK?

Suck it!

Come on.

I'm not asking you okay?

Come on!

go!

They can bite it.

Try it!

And pop his head.

His and that of his friend, see?

I'll do pieces of you.

Come on!

Okay, well!

Yes!

You are good.

You're very nervous, please relax.

Yeah.

I can suck your nipples?

Just a bit.

It was not so bad.

It was only a mordidinha.

Come on!

Come on!

Hurry up!

Somebody go get the food.

What happened?

What happened?

You okay?

You have another story?

Room ... 2 ...!

-How many women are?

-7.

Is that it?

Sure?

-7!

Okay, so ...

-How about the guy with magic powers?

Do you like it is not?

-Yes!

The guy was fantastic!

-No.

Yes, he had special powers.

It could be invisible when

Nobody was looking at him.

Sure!

So that when the look,

We are not the ...

Good afternoon, ladies!

I just want to make sure that all

recovered ...

... the fun night before.

No! Indeed, just wanted to hit a

chat rooms with some of you ...

... I could feel a little jealous.

Not tonight, tocaremos on you,

but you know ...

... our hearts are still with you.

Men should be very

proud of their women.

Very proud!

Well, some seem dead fish but ...

... but others do not, other

done as professionals.

-Now we are only eight.

-What happened? Have you died?

Yes

It was not even much longer

with a fish that seemed dead.

We will not stop this story now ok?

... then we will end up.

Where are you?

Is that you?

Come on!

You do not know my name.

No, but I'll know.

Say one more word and kill you.

I'm dead anyway!

Do not let go, idiots!

Do not let go!

Stop it!

Come back!

Come back here!

Finished. I broke up with you!

There is more food for you!

We spent all day without food!

Because her husband did not die?

From now on we will collect!

You missed!

What's happening?

Where are you?

You okay?

Will I get the food.

I said they killed a man.

I can handle it.

No, there will be a war.

They will want revenge.

We have to put something in the doors.

Using what we have.

Say what you want ...

Crap!

Tocos! Tocos!

What I suggest is that we do

find out who killed the leader ...

... and offer it as a sign of peace.

Not now.

We do not know who ...

They exchanged them for food.

They will not stop.

We will have war.

What we started.

Yes, exactly.

And I suggest that we find who killed their leader ...

Look, look.

If we give food ...

I say that consiguiremos.

Yes

Come on!

Come on.

Okay, I guess you're right.

Who would agree raise your hand.

Stop!

What?

I think that was the most ridiculous thing

I suggested in my life.

What do you think?

Those who do not quizerem fight,

simply will away and nobody

know that one day were here.

And those that remain, meet

to make a plan.

Yeah.

Ok.

We are in how many?

I see 12 of us.

What?

I heard something ...

Is anybody here.

Who is?

I heard someone.

Who is?

I heard someone.

I have a chair here.

If someone ...

On top, go!

Get those in front.

Stay united.

I will be in front.

Come on!

We can not go back!

Come on!

What is this?

Smoke?

Come on, hurry!

Stay down, come get you.

Hold on there.

Guards!

Guards!

They are not seeing?

They are not seeing what's happening?

Guards!

We are free!

Thank you.

Come, come.

This is a shelter?

Please, stay together.

I do not want to lose anyone else.

Okay, I get food.

I am going with you.

No, I can do it alone.

Stay here and take care of each other up.

Out!

This place is busy!

Have other groups out there.

Do not get out.

I know you can do it.

But as you get the whole

food alone?

Do you have anything?

Water?

Only this outfit.

I think there is no electricity.

You have people who still enxerguem?

What's happening?

I was homesick for you.

I felt so much his fault.

Here is another place.

I will come.

Ok.

Hold on.

I will stay here, I know my place.

There's nothing, c*nt!

There's nothing, c*nt!

What is it?

What is this?

Smell of meat!

Have food there?

Drop!

That's me, me!

Come on!

Are you okay, okay.

All right.

I have to stop.

It has some stairs.

All right, all right.

You're saved.

Thank you.

All right.

I have to go back and get that outfit

before we know where we are.

Yes, wait!

Take something.

... what's happening with us ...

Here!

I'm here!

I'm here!

Here.

It is horrible.

Who would do that?

Some blind.

That leaves anyone crazy.

Since I could not see, wanted the

see statues.

Do not believe this.

I do not know, is an impossible person

blind paint something.

Yes, it is possible.

Probably the priest saw what happened,

and had a crisis of faith.

No, I do not believe.

They all made me think we were lucky,

have somebody else to see.

So I think it depends on you,

decide what we will do.

Well, I think we should get

here tonight,

try to get some sleep and then ...

... and early in the morning, I was thinking that

could go to our home.

Okay hereabouts.

E. .. is quite large.

We can accommodate all.

Where you going?

Do not follow this dog, he could

to take you to anywhere.

Probably in the sense of a b*tch.
