In a year.

- Till then...

- Until then... What?

Or they find us, or we'll be...

We have enough for 2 months.

If we don't eat much.

And after those 2 months?

Or it rains and the water is good,

or it's rotten and we are too.

It's a male.

Well done.

We're lucky!

Listen Bouvreuil,

you don't have to stay.

Where do you want me to go?

If you stay... Do like us,

Wait for the rain,

take a shovel...

and shut up.

The vale. The vale.

The vale.

Evelyne. Don't stay. Again. Evelyne.

Take.

France welcomes Monarch from Sweden.

Come see.

Look.

- Who did this?

- It's Colin!

Anyways your machine...

That's not a good reason to break everything.

You don't need it anymore.

It's not the machine's fault.

Oh, no. Everything's been pulled out.

Is that a transmitter, you're making?

I'm trying.

Maybe he'll hear us over there.

In Australia.

I don't think so,

he doesn't enjoy it anymore.

- He told you?

- He wrote it.

How will you make it work?

With the generator. You got gas.

Some are lucky.

Six.

Can you give me tokens?

You're stealing 10 francs.

- You're not playing anymore?

- Oh no.

It's crazy how fast

we lose money here.

I want to tell you something.

Colin decided, by himself,

to make a transmitter.

It may be good, it may be bad...

When we use this transmitter

it'll burn gas

We have in all, 150 litres left.

With this we can ...

We can plough 10 hours.

We must choose between

the tractor or the transmitter.

Pessou?

- I'm for the tractor, of course.

-You can give me 10 litres?

Agree for 10 litres?

Yes, we've still got the mare

for ploughing.

What about going to see at

the "Bastide" with the tractor.

You'll go first,

to clear the way with your shovel?

So do we keep 10 litres for Colin?

Who's against it?

We'll see. If there's some left.

(mumble)...wash yourselves.

What is she saying?

- She say, we stink.

- She's right.

If it rains, get inside.

It may be dangerous.

So?

If the film is black,

the rain is rotten.

- Radioactive, tell it straight.

- Radioactive.

55, 56, 57...

71... 78

It's white.

It's alright.

Can we go?

Mommy!

Mommy! Mommy!

- Mommy!

- She can see, Momo.

What are you doing?

Are you mad?

I didn't know.

You can see they're all dead.

Red

Red

Black

Yellow

Oh sh*t! It should work.

You should take them off,

they'll be overdone.

No, it's ok.

They're old, you know.

Did you salt it?

Will you stop running around her?

She's not a child anymore.

See the fire?

No time.

No time. No time.

If he bothers you tell me.

Maybe thrushes.

Stop! It's not mature!

It's not mature!

Stop!

Stop! For God's sake!

Be careful!

Stop, sh*t!

It's nothing.

We should rub him down with Arnica.

- We need a fifth gun?

- If you want mine...

What was it?

We killed 3.

Who were they?

Unfortunates.

People stealing our wheat.

People we knew?

No, no one we knew.

Alright.

Do you remember the

old shipwreck stories?

When there's a raft,

everybody wants to get in.

So the ones on the raft

cut the other's hands off.

What else could we do?

I don't know.

But they're men,

there's not many left.

We're men too.

We managed to survive and that's all.

Because we were lucky?

And then?

We must defend ourselves.

Who doesn't think the same?

I think the same.

How long since... it happened.

6 months? More?

I've counted 7 full moons.

In the beginning, we couldn't see a thing.

It's strange,

not to be alone anymore.

18, 19, 20

They're 22.

What are they waiting for?

Do you really think we have to go?

We can't stay like this.

Do you see us playing sentinel

every night?

And if they ask to talk?

Bring one back, we'll see.

He's our Messiah, you're the one

These 2 curs,

we killed them like beasts

but we buried them like men.

When I ordered to shoot,

I heard you whispering.

You didn't have to whisper!

Don't forget our pact!

Our pact with God.

God chose us.

We're the only survivors on earth.

And it's here, and by us

that the new roots

of humanity will be born.

That's it.

They got uniforms. Let's go?

Not all of them.

With the guns?

No.

You think so?

Come closer!

Come on!

We're from Malevil.

Have you got I.D?

Bouvreuil, chemist.

deputy mayor

Colin

our electrician

We'd like to see the one in charge.

We killed 3 of them.

How do we address your boss?

Mr. Director!

Hands up!

Don't panic!

It's forbidden to talk to the strangers.

The distribution of supplies

has been postponed!

We are the first survivors.

Have a seat.

Where do you come from?

From Malevil.

- Where is it?

- 15 Km from here.

- How many are you?

- 8.

How did you find us?

Hunting the thieves.

We heard your shots.

What do you want?

Nothing, we just thought...

it was natural,

considering the situation

to let you know that you're not

the only ones to survive.

I'm a chemist.

Malevil, is that a village?

It was. There's only a piece

of the castle left.

I think Cathy's from there.

Do you want me to get her?

Have you got milk?

Yes.

And wheat.

And you?

Hello, Mr Colin.

Do you recognise this man?

It's the chemist.

Mr Bouvreuil,

we have a sick man here,

would you agree to see him?

Do you have any medicine?

Yes.

I don't know if they're appropriate,

but we have some.

Certainly, I can.

Thank you, Mr Director.

I know how good you are.

Thank you. Thank you.

How did you find a doctor?

It's hard these days.

I hope it's not measles.

I'm not lucky, really.

I've become a burden, Mr Director.

He's feeling a bit congested.

It's not scurvy?

We're very well-fed here Doctor,

you know.

Mr Director is looking after us,

just as his own children.

We're all his children.

- It's nothing.

- Really, Doctor?

I'd like so much to come back.

Can I see your medicine.

That; very good.

Rhinoglucinal, perfect.

That's what your friend needs.

We've got a sick woman too,

you can save her.

Take it.

We'll meet again,

one is enough for now.

Thank you.

Does your friend talk that much usually,

or is it because of the fever?

No, he always talks that much.

This should cure him.

But I'm worried, I must admit it.

- Two spoonfuls mornings and nights.

- Before each meal.

We only take one meal,

in the evening.

So 2 spoonfuls in the morning,

and 2 before the meal.

Our prison.

Very good.

I don't want to seem nosy, Mr Director

but my duty would be to stay,

your man's health

worries me very much.

Perfect.

- I'll get a room ready for you.

- Thank you.

I think it's better like this.

Tell them in Malevil, that we'll take

good care or your doctor.

- We didn't read this one?

- This one?

- Let's read this one.

- Who was it for?

Mr Pascal Jaquet.

C.E bank

Calls. (City)

Lot (district)

Where's that?

- Do you want me to read it or not?

- Read it.

Read! Read!

My dear Pascal.

I must have left my umbrella in your car,

I hope this mistake

won't have any consequences.

Don't forget to tell me, if you come

on monday or saturday.

I've got a book

to give you from Roland.

We're waiting for you.
