BEFORE THE FALL:

Again?

It's 9 o'clock.

What time did you get in last night?

Who said I got in?

It's been like that all morning.

Luisa rang.

You didn't fix

the washing machine properly.

Juan rang too.

He asked you

to paint the kitchen white

and that isn't white.

How isn't it?

White is white.

That's what he says.

White is white. not ivory.

It's hot!

Don't you sleep?

Where'd you go last night?

I came home.

We gave Rubio's guys a real beating.

Paco was going wham, wham!

Like a f***ing windmill.

What's that?

Gas for the generator.

F***. you think there's room?

What's on for today?

Give me that.

I have to check the TV in the bar.

It's not working

and there's a game tomorrow.

I'll drop you at the launderette.

The pipe is blocked.

You want Rubio's guys to see me?

His cousins run the launderette.

You want them to kick my head in?

You should stay out of trouble.

I'll pick you up at 2:00.

I wonder where Loren got to?

He gets that kid pregnant,

then dumps her and clears off.

Loren's smart.

She deserved it, the slut.

-I thought you liked her.

-Yeah,

Iike hell I did.

Why bring the ladder?

You never use it.

Where's Marcial?

He's busy.

If I'd known you were coming,

I'd have brought down the TV.

It isn't the tube.

The valve is fine.

Did you move the aerial?

...the latest information

available.

Three years ago...

It must have been the aerial.

...and we were informed

of the possibility

that it would collide

with our planet.

A few month ago we learned

that the Scott's trajectory

had been altered

as a result of a solar storm.

The latest calculations show

that this alteration

means that the Earth is now

directly in its path.

A few minutes ago it was confirmed

that the meteorite

is heading for the Earth.

The governments of the US,

Russia...

were working together in an effort

to destroy it

or at least modify its trajectory.

Today it is my duty to inform you

that all these efforts

have failed.

The Newton I and II space missions

were also unsuccessful.

Tragically,

human lives have been lost.

This morning,

the Sky XI communications satellite

crashed to Earth

because meteorite particles

have already penetrated

our atmosphere.

And this is just a sample

of what awaits us

in the next days.

At present, the meteorite is

heading towards us at a speed

of 55,000 miles per hour.

It is a gigantic rock

30 miles in diameter.

That is, five times the size

of the meteorite

that extinguished the dinosaurs.

We had intentionally decided

not to make any announcement

so as to avoid panic

among the population.

However, bearing in mind

the present circumstances

we have reconsidered

that position.

In the next hours

we expect an initial shower

of relatively small fragments

of the meteorite.

The final impact will occur

within 72 hours

and the consequences

will be fatal.

There is no hope of life

after the impact.

...waiting for a statement

from Air France.

As has happened in the last few

hours with three other planes,

its flight 862 crashed

near the Bay of Panama at noon.

Again, the cause seems to have been

problems in the flight system

as a result of alterations

in the Earth 's magnetic field.

There have been over 2, 600 victims

in various accidents

in Beijing.

...images of the impact

at 13:
00 today.

It is the third fragment, after

those in the Baltic and in Havana,

in the two hours

since the announcement

by the President

of the Committee of Nations.

...riots in at least 26 prisons

in the country.

After the announcement,

most of the officers

abandoned their posts

and prisoners took control

of the buildings.

There are over 300 victims

among the inmates...

Ale!

The prisoners...

They're escaping!

...the security forces...

...in what was

already a dramatic situation...

-Where are you going?

-To Toms' house.

He was to come back next weekend.

He left the kids with Lara.

How'll you get there?

Someone will take me.

Yeah. people have got

nothing better to do...

Take your pills with you!

...and dozens injured

after incidents early this morning

in jails in the north west.

Police volunteers have lost

all control...

...and an improvised caravan

of stolen cars

are fleeing desperately...

Damin!

-Where's everyone going?

-We're heading up the mountain.

We'll try to shelter in the tunnel.

I don't know!

Come on!

Mother!

Urbano!

Mother!

Urbano!

Mother!

Mother!

Where are we going?

To Toms' house, right?

Go on, go on.

It'll fall on you

no matter where you go.

Lara!

Children!

Lara!

Children!

Grandma!

Grandma's here!

-Grandma's here!

-Nico!

Grandma. why are you crying?

Because I love you very much.

And you kids?

Won't you say hello to uncle Ale?

I know two new songs!

Hello, uncle Ale!

What do you want?

To give you a kiss.

Scram.

Where's Lara?

She went shopping

and didn't come back.

And your parents?

They're coming on Monday.

on the 18:
00 train.

-And how are you?

-We're really bored.

Bored?

Go into town

and see the fun they're having.

Hello, grandma.

My kitten.

Have you fixed the TV?

What do you think?

I only get static.

We've seen nothing for two days.

Don't you know?

-Know what?

-"What?" That...

That this'll be

the hottest summer in years.

The swimming pools will be full.

Some news.

What's wrong with the phone?

I couldn't get a Iine all day.

It's not a good day for calling.

Why?

Because...

it's very expensive today.

The TV said so.

Then why are all the lines busy?

Because...

people like wasting money.

We can listen to this.

Thank you, Clarita.

Now. excuse me.

I have to go to the bathroom.

Heavens, love,

your grandma is a disaster.

I dropped the radio in the bathtub.

-ls there much food?

-There's no milk.

Lara was going to get rolls.

Uncle Ale and I will get them.

Right, Ale?

Right?

Bye, kids.

Uncle Ale and l

will be right back.

-Emilio!

-What?

Don't Iet anyone

come near the house.

You hear?

Who'd come. grandma?

-Emilio!

-All right.

Bye.

Why did you tell them

that pack of lies?

It wasn't the time.

It wasn't the time?

When will it be?

When they're dead?

Just drive on.

I have to get to town.

Soro captured in cement factory

Laguna youth helps capture him

He won't come back.

He was in the Martena prison.

He'll have got a car.

Christ!

If I'd been in prison for 20 years

and got out for three days,

I'd go whoring.

Soro is an animal.

He swore he'd get back

at your brother, and he will.

You don't remember.

You were a child.

Yeah, but because of that bastard.

you f***ed up my life.

Only Mr. Perfect got anything

from it, playing the hero.

Your brother saved Iots of lives.

The whole town was grateful.

Well, he ruined my life.

The f***ing hero of Laguna.

You forgot about me.

Yeah, because who would listen

to that idiot Ale?

-He never did anything worthwhile.

-That's not true.

You liked music and your father...

Don't even mention him!

Martena is far away.

It'll take him a day to get here.
