Renaissance Page #2

Synopsis: Paris, 2054: a dark motion-captured world of shadows and right angles. Ilona Tasuiev, a brilliant young scientist, is kidnapped, and her employer, Avalon, a major health and beauty corporation, wants her found. Karas, a jaded police captain, is assigned to find her, fast. He seeks help from her sister, Bislane, and they are soon uncovering identify theft, missing files, and hints that something back in 2006 may explain what's going on. Ilona's mentor, Avalon's vice president, a Japanese researcher, an underworld boss, and Bislane's drug connection all figure in the mix. So does an attraction between Karas and Bislane. What's behind the kidnapping? Who's the victim?

Don't hide anything.

Or I'll know it sooner or later.

Can I stay here tonight?

This way I'll know where to find you.

She's an...

exceptional woman.

I know you can hear me.

I can feel your presence.

Answer me!

My name is... Ilona Tasuiev.

I'm 22 years old, 22!

I want to live!

Pssshhh!

Hmmm...

Greetings, captain.

Welcome to Avalon.

Your gun and your e-call, please.

The legendary

captain Karas.

Nice to meet you.

I've heard a lot about you.

No news?

None.

At least for now.

This situation is intolerable.

If I may...

Sorry, was Ilona working

on a confidential project?

Like all our researchers

she does her best to improve

the life of all the people.

Anything else?

Is Ilona Tasuiev your mistress?

I knew you were a direct man.

Hmmm!

I have sex with my secretary,

my wife.

And even my wife's sister.

But with my scientists,

never.

Goran is looking for you!

There's a problem with the sister.

Poor kid!

What's so important in this book?

You're raising your child with love

and look how he ends.

Shut up.

Don't you know how yours

will end, do you?

Karas should sign the report.

After you.

There was a Japanese.

Children lined up

just like on a class photo.

There was a date on the cover, 2006.

That's all?

That's all he let me see.

I'll trust you,

I have no other choice.

But if you hide

something else...

We got Ilona's car.

We found it.

The car

is given chase to,

unknown driver.

It's heading towards the center.

Karas, do you copy?

It's going

to the center.

Damn!

Move away, f***!

Take the Pont des Arts.

Come on!

Welcome to the Galeries Lafayette

Notre-Dame.

Leaving for the week-end...

Move away!

We finally got him!

He's one of Farfella's henchmen.

It's Farfella who's

gonna be happy!

So?

It's a 42 and a half.

It's not him.

Sh*t!

Where did he get the car?

He won't talk.

We must wait

for his lawyer.

Karas!

Don't leave me alone

with this lunatic!

I don't know this chick!

Come here!

I swear, I don't know anything!

What about paying a visit to Farfella?

Salam aleikum, Farfella.

Aleikum salam, Karas.

Once every 20 years.

We don't see each other very often.

You put on some weight.

I always wanted to look like you.

It's your turn to

honor your debt.

How nice of you!

You brought me

a present!

Hmmm...

You know that Naghib

has nothing to do with it.

You know that he stole the car.

Where? When?

How? You'd better tell me right now.

You forgot to say "please".

Hmmm!

Security cameras

in one of my parkings.

you should find something

of interest in it.

May the Prophet be with you.

Enough for a visual identification.

Switch to the convicts file.

Search all files.

Witnesses, suspects.

Sh*t!

I can't believe it.

General identification.

Send the picture to

Avalon and Muller.

Widen the search

if we don't find anything.

Army, Health.

Top priority.

Nora, take over.

More secrets?

I never saw this guy.

Not even in the book.

I'm sure of it.

Whose book was it?

What was Ilona looking for?

Repeating your questions

won't do you any good!

I was wrong to cover up for Dimitri.

I didn't want to give him away

without being sure.

You can understand, can't you?

To protect such a scumbag?

He wasn't always like that.

This investigation will be very difficult

with friends like that.

What about you, Karas?

Do you always meet perfect women?

No.

You're wasting your time

in this shitty world.

This shitty world,

it's the only one

I know.

If you know of a better one

I'll take it.

We must have missed something.

It's here somewhere.

We'll inevitably find out.

This way!

Move it!

Hands up!

Igor Vord?

You're under arrest!

No!

Him, not Igor!

Igor Vord, where?

Igor!

Igor!

for the same face

on different metro-passes.

We're right in the middle

of an identity traffic.

Er...

Absolutely, captain.

Er... Vord,

Novalis and Hemen.

All incinerated here.

Igor Vord, 10 years ago,

in march 44.

Thomas Hemen,

Alfred Novalis will be incinerated

next month.

As you can see

everything is noted here.

Those deaths weren't registered.

According to my report

the hospital took care of them.

You can have a look by yourself.

Burial certificate sent

by Avalon's clinic.

Everything is in order.

The same doctor

signed for the 3 of them.

Dr Muller.

Nora, call Reparaz,

we're going to Muller's place.

We're gonna lose him if

we don't act now.

He knows we're making some progress,

he has the picture of the kidnapper.

You have nothing.

Muller signed the 3

burial certificates.

He's signing 300 of them a year!

A f*** up

will be his lawyers delight.

I don't give a f***,

I want a warrant!

It's 5 in the morning.

I need at least 1h.

Karas!

Listen!

I'll get you

if you go in!

Karas!

Police!

Amiel...

Investigate on Muller

and Avalon, year 2006.

Report anything you can find.

Why don't we have this kind of stuff?

Remain calm.

They pirated my e-call,

they shot me!

I want a warrant for

arrest for Dellenbach.

You don't have any evidence.

They were Avalon's men!

You break into Muller's house

and you kill 2 men.

Do you want to be decorated?

Muller is behind Ilona's kidnapping

and Avalon is covering up for him.

What's your share in this?

What are you saying?

You're suspended.

Hmmm!

Nice show!

Go f*** yourself.

You're not alone.

You have a team with you.

You were right about the

metro-passes.

They've been used around

Muller's district.

I gathered all I could about 2006.

Muller was one of Avalon's greatest hope.

He quit everything

after his brother's death.

He tried everything to save him.

But Claus was infected

by an incurable disease.

Progeria.

Muller?

It doesn't make any sense.

He took advantage of

his situation

to steal identities.

The book belonged to him.

Muller is involved.

Why Ilona?

She discovered something about him

during her research.

I must find out

what happened in 2006.

Why did Ilona want

this book so badly?

But I need you

for that.

What?

Avalon archives?

You hate your job.

It's too dangerous.

It never stopped you.

Where are you?

I'm heading to

the archives.

It's fine, I see you.

Ah!

Do you understand,

I...

I'm there.

Good, now be very careful.

I can see everything

Ilona consulted on 2006.

Focus on progeria and Muller.

Oh sh*t,

an alpha confidential!

What?

A secured file.

I can check it

but I'll be discovered.

Too dangerous.

It never stopped me.

There's...

Children who all carry

a mark on the back of the skull.

A triangular scar.

What did they do to them?

We put a definitive end

to Muller's protocol.

He's the guy on the book.

Dr Nakata.

Our supply of patients depleted

after these deaths.

Genetic experiment tests

all failed.

Intruder alert!

Block 4.6.4.

Intruder alert!

Maximum alert!

We're terminating the tests.

Bislane, get out of here!

Authorizations

have been rejected.

All files relating to our research

have been destroyed

by Dr Muller.

We lost 9 children.
