Ares (2016)

[bunniefuu]

A law amends the principles of
respect for the human body

People can now sell, rent or
dispose of their bodies as they see fit.

Human experimentation
is a simple act of commerce.

Paris, March 2035

I was ten years old when I arrived in France.

It was a rich country.

Today, there are 15 million unemployed

and countless people are homeless.

The state went bankrupt,

and companies have bought government debts.

They are the ones,
The real owners of the country.

They changed the laws.

We have more freedoms.

People are free to sell
themselves, to use drugs,

and to die.

People still vote for the government,

But the rulers live in the skyscrapers.

People still hope to change all that.

But the vast majority,
They hope for nothing.

They just want to survive.

I'm not complaining.

I have a job.

I entertain people.

It's called the arena.

It was born at a time
when doping was legalized,

and it became the No. 1 sport
in the world.

Drago versus Arès.

Don't miss, Saturday 13 March,
on EurOne...

Today, companies invest millions

and the champions
advertise their products.

I was one of them.

I was one of the best.

I was followed
by the best researchers

And I had the best dopes.

Then I tested a new formula

And I had a stroke.

It was ten years ago.

After that, I was worth nothing.

Do you still remember your name?

f*ck you

Continue like this, and you won't
piss me off for a long time.

Reda, the coach has your money.

I have work.
You interested?

Sure.

There's only 500.

You only held two rounds.

You.

You.

You, next door.

You.

You.

And you.

Join the others, I'm coming.

What do I do?

You put "yes" everywhere.

Is that right, I'm a cop?

For 24 hours.

- When will we be paid?
- When the job is done.

What is that?

It prevents stupid questions.

Assholes!

Let go of me, f*ck!

Donevia is the preferred target
of anarchist movements.

An ad for the company
would have gone well

After the disappointing results
of the first quarter.

At this moment,

A group of activists is protesting
in front of the tower

calling for an immediate halt of
their experimentation program.

Since the "Arms and Security" law,

Firearms are ill*gal
throughout the country.

For the safety of all,
call 08-911-911.

Since the "Arms and Security" law,

Firearms are ill*gal
throughout the country...

What are you doing with g*ns?

Our enemies are armed,
we need to defend ourselves.

She was arrested again.

We were in front of Donevia
when he and his friends arrived.

Thanks, Reda.

Anouk, thank your uncle.

Fascist.

little sh*t.

One day she'll go too far
and I won't be able to do anything.

Is she going too far?

Look.

Net income is 22 billion euros.

Amnesty International estimates
more than 2,000 fatalities

by your pharmaceutical tests.

Where do you intend to stop?

We didn't k*ll anyone.
These are accidents.

These people were aware of the risks.

Their families were compensated.

We did not force them to sign.

He lied to them.



They don't tell them of the risks.
All for making better dope.

Reda, this is Boris,
my new boss.

- Where's the old man?
- In jail.

He caused too much trouble.

You shouldn't stay here.

Someone has to tell the truth.

Screw the truth.
I can't eat it.

And freedom?

- Justice, don't you care?
- Yeah.

I prefer money.

What were you doing?

You still don't want keys?

No thanks.

I only offer them to you.

Thank you for helping my niece.

Good morning Anna.

Hello sir.

So?

- I modified the doses of asthéine,
no result.

How many?

More than 10,000.

f*ck, "more than 10,000".
No exact number?

Yes, but I'll keep it to myself.
It's better than you don't know.

OK, but be convincing.

The board wants to stop everything.

It's risky with so few results.

I have results.

More than 10,000 dead, those results?

Tell us about the fighter that you found.

He had his moment of glory, 10 years ago.

It's in the past, but he knows how to fight.

The ideal candidate for a demonstration.

To convince the board,
we need more than a victory.

Unless it is exceptional.

Don't miss, Saturday 13 March
on EurOne...

The Arena European Championship
qualifying matches

with headliner Panzer,

champion of France
and serial k*ller of the arenas,

Representative of Perk laboratories.

Reda.

Take a seat.

I have something for you.

- What's this?
- A new dope.

With that, you win.

Did you make that?

Who do you work for?

You see, that, Reda ...

That can revive your career.

Dying isn't part of my plan.

Who's talking about dying, damn?

Why me?

You're a has-been, a loser.

Winning as a loser pays more
than winning as a champion.

OK, then go ahead.

Try it for yourself, I'll see what happens.

The product doesn't work on everybody.

But we already tested it on you.

Don't worry,
We gave your blood to Tyro for a test.

That's all.

The results were excellent.

I'm not a guinea pig.

Come on!

f*ck, Reda!

We can make a wad of dough with that.

Don't be stupid!
This thing is your chance.

That's it, get out of here, poor loser!

Then remain a failure.

Since the "Arms and Security" law,

Firearms are ill*gal throughout the country.

Heartache, guilt ...

With Prozyx, be free.

Don't give your body to science, sell it.

Hey, Zito, how's it going?

I'm good.

It's still selling, isn't it?

It's selling, yeah.

- What about that?
- That, no.

The paper's closing down tomorrow.

And that?

Listen, Reda

I said I was going to sell you the kiosk.

I gave you my word.
But please...

Stop bugging me every night.

I swear, it's a pain in the a*s.

And go and rest, you need it.



Yes, 15,000.

EurOne.

Our teams brought us a portrait from Russia
of the arena world champion,

The eugenic Rod,
a genetically modified fighter...

EuroTwo



Four unemployed against an arena fighter.

If they last a round, they win 1,000 euros.

If they beat him, they win 100,000 euros.



- It's this evening...
- Info 34.

Lactia milk joined
the long list of harmful foods.

Enriched with animal hormones
and synthetic vitamins,

It promotes cholesterol,
cell degradation

and endocrine disruptions.

Fascist.

f*gg*t.

Your sister was arrested
this morning at 6:01 am

for possession of firearms.

My sister?

Carla Kowalski, 36 years old.

- Is that her?
- She's a mother ...

She works for Info 34,

an activist close to the revolutionaries.

She needs to work.

Why did she have a semi-automatic
p*stol in her house?

I dunno.

Someone hid it there.

Or it serves as a hideout for the t*rrorists.

What is she facing?

It depends on the judge, but
between five and ten years.

The weapon is mine.

Sorry?

The semi-automatic g*n, it's mine.

Describe it to me.
Make, caliber.

Want to help your sister?

Latest data show that
the father emigrated to China.

If you don't take the girls,
they'll be put into a home.

My sister, can I see her?

Make a request, but I guarantee nothing.

She is considered a t*rror1st.

For the kids, what do we do?

Hello?

Hello, it's me.

My sister was arrested yesterday.

Can you ask around?

I can try, but I can't promise anything.

OK.
Try to tell me where she is.

I'll make a few phone calls
and I'll call you back.

But above all, keep a low profile.

Don't make waves, or
we'll never get her out of there.

OK.

Boris Berthon,
Journalist at Info 34.

We're investigating the disappearance
of Carla Kowalski,

She was arrested at her home...

Don't touch me!

You don't have the right to touch me!

I'm with my lawyer.

What do you have to say?

Two children!

Reda!

Stop!

Reda.

This is Mr. Weil, our lawyer.

We know that Carla was framed.

We're not going to let them.

- We have the defense from Hell.
- Not here. Follow me.

f*ck, you're gonna do nothing!

Am I clear?

You're wrong.

Am I clear?

You're wrong.

Come on.

Have you found a solution?

That's it.

You got a minute.

How's it going?

I'm holding on.

The girls?

They're at home, they're good.

Thank you.

The weapon, you know where it came from?

I was burglarized the day before.

I didn't worry, they didn't take anything.

But they left the g*n.

I told the police, but...

I have a plan to get you out.

Time to go.

In the meantime, stay away from problems.

It's dangerous here.
I can't protect you.

You have to go.

Reda.

Get me out of there.

With Cokezodyx,
break down in complete tranquility.

He said that?

Time to eat.

Reda, when does Mom come back?

I don't know, Mae.

It's not for kids.

You're not arguing with a pitbull.

What are you doing?

Come eat.

Don't speak to this guy anymore.

Who do you think you are?

You're not telling me what to do.

Poor guy.

How many people do they stop for terrorism?

You really believe that they'ill release her?

Open your eyes!

It's a revolution.

They're against us.

To free her, we have to
go fight in the streets.

Eat, it's gonna get cold.

Servile and violent.

The perfect cop.

Where are you going?

Stay here!

Anouk!

Come back, damn!

You said a big word.

You have to put a euro in the box.

Can you watch her for me?
I'll be back soon.

You're welcome!

Go away! Let go of me!

as*h*le! You're a vicious one, you.

Let me go, sh*t!

wh*re!

You let me go, damn!

What the hell is he?

Come on, as*h*le!

Let go of me!

We'll bring her back tomorrow.

Come on, get out of here.

Come any closer, I'll k*ll her.

Let her go.

- You're a sh*t, Anouk.
- I didn't ask you for anything.

You want your mother to die?

Do you want your mother to die?

No?

Prison is dangerous.

I will not wait for the revolution
to get her out.

I'll pay, because hat's how it works.

- Yes?
- You coming over?

- I have something new about your sister.
- I'm coming.

Come in, my dear

I made food.

A human sh*t.

She was arrested on an anonymous tip.

It's good news.

It's not related to a bigger deal,
or I couldn't have done anything.

They don't joke around
with arms trafficking.

The population is angry,
they don't want an armed population.

The bad news is the money.

These guys won't get dirty for nothing.

How much?



What do I get for that?

A procedural flaw.

They make the weapon disappear
and your sister is released in a week.

But we need to do it quickly,
before the case goes to the prosecutor.

I'll call you when I get the money.

That means that if we take it, we die.

While you,

You're a lucky guy.

Your blood assimilates the drug.

Yeah, I'm really lucky...

Anything else I need to know?

Yeah.

The effects.

It's short-lasting,
and withdrawal is brutal.

You've got five minutes to win
before losing consciousness.

Withdrawal is either brutal or definitive.
It depends on your heart.

We can't know in advance if it will stand up.

You're telling me that if my opponent
doesn't stop me, then the dope will do it.

No. There's a risk, that's all.

What's the plan?

I register you in qualifiers
for the European Championship.

You don't have to qualify,

Just pass the first three rounds.

We'll bet on you.

You're a loser,
you'll have a rotten rib.

Finishing a round will be a miracle.

We can win up to 5 or 6 times our money
in the first round.

How much do I earn?

Half of the match bonuses.


And I'll give you 5,000 right away.

Welcome, neighbor.

Your nieces are adorable.

Nothing at all like you.

Souris, Reda,

You're filming.

There are 4 cameras that are
always filming the apartment

and it's posted on Gaylife.com.

Is that your job?

No, I'm a transformational artist.

But we can also
follow my life on the Internet.

Are there people interested?

Mainly when I f*ck.

But some like to see me sh*t.

Girls, we're going to bed.

Say goodbye to your friend.

Good night, Myosotis.

Good night, Myosotis.

Good night, my darling.

- Come back whenever you like.
- That's it.

You're welcome!

Welcome to EurOne

Lottery results for the European Championship
qualifying tournament contestants

Bludger against Hercules!

Mr. Universe against the Unknown Soldier

Cool Dude against Budha!

Arès against Panzer!

f*cking sh*t!

It's not true!

Your chances of being matched against him
were one in a hundred.

Not only are you a nothing,
but you also have the worst luck!

- He can win.
- You don't know anything about it!

This guy is unbeatable!

Look! No, but look!

Panzer!

An indomitable warrior.

The star of Perk laboratories.

The serial k*ller of the arena.

They operated on him,
he doesn't feel the blows.

It will be the same for him.

Look at him!

He can take them, the blows.

He'll take just about anything.

One strike hits at 1,125 kg/Pa.

Imagine a car hitting you at 100 km/h.

Panzer knows how to defeat and k*ll.

Even if you can get a punch in.

He K.O.'d this guy in 5 minutes?

Yes.

I bet you'll win.

"I bet you'll win."
Bullshit!

He's going to knock you out
and I'll lose everything.

He represents The Arena Club 93

and he's the first-round underdog.

What's this?

Money from the kiosk.

How much?

Almost 10,000.

Plus, that's almost 15,000.

It's still not 100,000.

No, but it can be.

We'll bet with them.
My odds are 12 to 1.

We're not allowed to bet on your fights.

No.

We ask a friend.

You got a friend?

And you want me to bet 15,000 euros

on you?

That's it.

But you're no good.

You're gonna die.

You'll leave nothing to your nieces.

I'm not asking your opinion

Just bet.

Can you take the g*dd*mn money?

OK.

It's yours.

Would it tear off his mouth to say thank you?

Yeah.

It's Saturday night,
it's sport fever

On EurOne!

Welcome to EurOne

For the first round of French qualifications

For the European Championships
From 6pm to midnight

With 208 registered fighters
including the 60 French champions

And no less than 104 fights

That you will follow Live with us!

Here.

That's George.

You can come out
when the match is over, little one.

Don't worry.

The star of Perk laboratories
is the favorite tonight.

He faces Arès, ranked 652nd in France,
arena fighter of the 1st generation.

Arès had his hour of glory a decade ago.

That's why the odds are 12 to 1.

Given the ranking of Arès,

It seems a little too easy
for the French N° 1

who risks adding a new victim to his record.

Find all the fights
delayed on Europlay

as well as complete results...

It takes a little time to act.

You've got 5 minutes to win.

And a good chance of staying there, I know.

Perk has developed a product ...

White bandage, Arès.

Black bandage, the favorite, Panzer.

Judging by the look in their eyes

it's not going to be fun for Arès.

Beautiful uppercut!

I have never seen such a powerful blow.

Very good.

He continues his momentum!

Arès is delivering a great surprise.

In the ba*ls!

Extraordinary!

The champion is in trouble.

Arès makes a strong impression...

...He gets a second dose of adrenaline,

Which means that Arès...

How much time is left?

Less than a minute.

Protect yourself, Arès!

Panzer has fallen!

Beaten in less than two rounds

By a third category fighter,

Is that a new product
coming to the market?

Even the few betting on Arès
look surprised.

- You did not bet.
- Of course not!

I couldn't know that he would win.

I told you.

f*ck, you won!

We won!

As we have said,
the product isn't ready yet

but you saw the potential of HSX.

It's time for us to vote.

Who wants to continue
the experiments of Professor Medvezachev?

Arès, the 652nd French,
Beat the No. 1, Panzer.

The action of the Perk Company unscrews...

- Can I come out?
- Yes, darling, it's over.

Is he OK, Reda?

We don't know. I dunno.

Imagine the financial benefits
in the Military and Sports sectors.

But the manna, ladies and gentlemen,
Billions of billions

Will come from industry.

Imagine

the productivity
of a worker under HSX.

He's alive.

Arès is alive.
We found patient zero.

How's he doing?

What's your name?

f*ck you.

He's fine.

So, champion.

Have you seen the news?
You're not dead.

No consequences,
No trauma, nothing.

f*ck, you were huge!
A real beast!

I wonder if you could even win it,

their f*cking European championship.

No, thank you, I'll stop.

Ah.

Hold on.

- Listen to them first.
- Reda.

Donevia's Vice President
has a proposal to make.

Mr. Kowalski,

Become our champion.

The product is not ready
but you tolerate it well.

We're gonna launch it.

We have settled financial details

with your coach.

What's that?

An advance.

Reda!

He's there!

Are you okay?

- No, it's okay.
- And there?

- It's okay.
- And there?

- There, yes.
- Sissy!

Hello.



You can retire.

Go to my room.

I will continue the competition.

Huh?

But why?

We got the money for Mom.

When that comes out,
it will be 80,000 euros.

With that, you're not rich

nor poor.

This is 500,000.

Donevia will give me 5 million more

To win the next round.

I don't want any of their blood money.

These guys k*ll people every day.

Do you know what they pay for
the death of their guinea pigs?





I don't make the rules.
I can't change them.

When you're rich,

you're not going to jail.

You live well,

Longer.

Your mother gets out next week.

Decide what you want to do.

HSX makes people invincible.

The HSX Superman!

HSX, the future of mankind!

You were the 652nd in the national ranking,

And you beat the number one French.

Thanks to the victory of Arès,
our share price has risen more than 53%.

Our consolidated earnings
will reach 32 billion euros.

Who lives here?

We do. It's our new home.

Where is he, Myosotis?

His home.

That's a bad thing.



Loss at the Tricastin nuclear power plant.

The department of Drôme
was partly evacuated...

In France, the number of unemployed
has just passed the 15 million mark.

China has promised to increase
its aid to Europe.

In the USA, President Roman Farro

promises a way out of the country's crisis
within two years.

What happened?

She defended the new prisoners.

Here.

Keep it.

Find me the one who tipped off the cops.

I want to know who hid the weapon
in her home.

I can't promise you anything,
I don't have access to those files.

If you need more money, you call me.

Here's a report on the new adversary of Arès.

Saninov presents:

The Mass!



An unusual physique,

Like a sumo wrestler,
The Mass does not dodge attacks.

Hello.

Nice, the apartment.

- You work for them now?
- Turn off.

You could change your clothes.

What do you want?

Real numbers of Donevia tests.

Help us find them.

Connect yourself to one of their consoles.

- It's your enemies, not mine.
- Those of your sister.

My sister's enemies are
the ones who framed her.

and I'll find them.

So, here.

That should help.

Your sister's file, recovered
in the National Defense AI.

Phone number of the one who reported her.

It's a telephone booth.

There's the address of the cabin.

See you tomorrow!

Reda!

What are you doing here?

It's nice

Not to forget old friends.

Ready for tomorrow's fight?

You're going to smash it!

This time, I place the bet on you.

Tell me.

Who else in the club was
compatible with the product?

Why are you asking?

Do I have competitors?

You're the only one, boy! The only!

You got quite lucky there.

By the way, thank you for my sister.

For flowers.

It's nothing, boy.

I need your help again.

What's happening?

If it goes wrong for me tomorrow,

Will you take care of the girls?

I have no children, I can't
raise someone else's.

You don't have to take them home,
They're at my neighbor's.

I'm just asking you to watch over them.

OK.

Okay.

Thank you.

Today,

From 6 pm to midnight,
it's non-stop action on EurOne,

with the second qualifying round
and its 52 fights.

Match of the day:
Arès, from the Donevia stable,

Against The Mass, of Saninov.

And here is Arès!

The Donevia product
has proved its effectiveness,

But Arès collapsed at the end of his fight.

It must be strong to resist
the charges of The Mass.

And we see happen

His opponent, the Mass,
N° 7 French.

If this beautiful baby is not
higher in the ranking,

It's because he's just starting his career.

He defeated his first-round
opponent in 43 seconds.

When he overwhelemd his opponent
against the walls of the cage.

Betters do not have a favorite.

The odds are 1 to 2.

Are you sure of your move?

- The rules haven't changed.
You've got five minutes.

The withdrawal will be less brutal,
and the product will act faster.

I need to take a blood sample
before and after the fight.

Let's start.

- It will soon be the shock...
- Look at that, Tyro.

Look at how you get
a mountain of money.

Where is his coach?

He's motivated, Arès seems a bit...

KO In 17 seconds, Jean-Paul!
I knew it.

This guy is a loser, and the HSX, a scam.

We can't be Superman in one minute.
It's bullshit.

One wonders even in which way...

How much did you bet, coach?

That was an execution.

Come on, man!

Go.

We're collapsing.
The market is waiting for explanations.

Go get Arès.
I want to know what happened.

You have 4 hours.

I'll need him.

Find me his nieces.

Are the girls ready?

Yeah.

The money?

I bet 300,000 on the other.

Oh f*ck.



You could be happy.

I am happy.

What does one say?

Go get the money, I'll meet you.

If I'm not here tonight,
don't wait.

Get out with the girls and the money.

Call this number.

Who is this?

A friend.

She's a cop. She'll help you.

Anouk gave me Boris' number.

Forget him.

If something goes wrong,
only a cop can help.

Well, are you getting out?

What's the magic word?

Get out or I'll pop you one.

Macho sh*t.

When does Reda come back, Anouk?

Later. Myosotis put out food.

Hold on.

No, he's not here, m*therf*cker!

He's here, coach.

as*h*le!

What the f*ck have you done?

I ruined them.

And you, I'll k*ll you.

You see, I saved this for you.

f*ck, the f*ck!

Prevent him from pricking himself!

Think.

You saw what I did to Panzer.

You were the only one
who was able to use their dope.

I wasn't gonna let this happen.

You would've done the same.

Listen.

I'm sorry for your sister.

You know I'm sorry.
But frankly,

we couldn't have known it would happen.

I just wanted you to fight.

I did this for you.

I couldn't let you pass up

all the glory, the fortune.

It was clever to lose.

A very nice plan.

Betting on your defeat,
stashing your nieces with the tr*nsv*stite.

Too bad you drained your syringe.

It would be more useful to you now.

- Where are my nieces?
- Still there.

Call them, they're fine.

It's for me.

Hi, Reda.

I'm with your nieces.

You're going to do exactly what you're told.

It's the woman who introduced
me to the coach.

Your sister was her idea.

You didn't want to take the product,

We had to find a solution.

She didn't do it lightly.

She really loves you.

But she prefers money.

Well, let's not waste any time.

Your nieces must be in a hurry
to see you again.

Hello. Myosotis.

Message.

Anouk, it's Myosotis.

Is he the one who has the money?

Anouk!

How much?



- It's Myosotis!
- Tell him to come back.

Right now.

Hello? Hello?

Girls!

And no bullshit.

I know you're here.

What are you doing?

Anouk?

- Hello?
- Well, finally!

I'm at the deli.
What do you want?

Nothing, forget it.

Reda takes us to the restaurant.

Really?

Yes, and you too.

I want to thank you.

That's great, tell me.

I'm coming.

It's good.

You're a nice girl.

Excuse me.

I need your phone.

That's it. And my c*ck, too?

What do you want?

You.

Why? I'm worth nothing.

This product has been tested.

Out of 30,126 people,
there were 30,125 dead.

You are patient zero,

the only one to resist the HSX.

Thanks to you,
we will stabilize the formula

and market the product.

You thought we were going
to let you go like that?

Hello?

sh*t.

Hello?

I need a weapon.

Where are my nieces?

They'll be here soon.

But first, the explanation.

Mr. Kowalski has family concerns,

which is worth our collaboration.

Mr. Kowalski.

Did you take the product?

There.

- You have the explanation.
- Thank you, Anna.

Last question.

Now that you have Mr. Kowalski available,

How long to stabilize the formula?

- Two months.
- There.

Ladies and gentlemen, two months.

We have suffered a blow, but soon,

We will have a product

capable of producing a Superman.

It remains abstract.





A Rod clone,
the world's No. 1 arena fighter.

He cost us 20 million euros.

Panzer struck

At 1,125 kg / pressure.

You get to witness this with your own eyes.

You, see who it is.

It's Myosotis.

Are you okay?

It's okay?

Who is this?

A friend of their uncle.

He has a knack for choosing his friends.

- You know where he is?
- At the Donevia tower.

The product has just activated.

Let's start the demonstration.

Cuckoo, Reda!

Reda, your nieces are fine.

Anouk and Myosotis are below.

Good end of meeting.

You see, your nieces are doing well.

Don't worry.

Lower your weapons.

I want him alive.

Living!

Three minutes
and the product will no longer work.

You have two minutes left.

Hi, it's me.

What did you want me to do?

It works?

Yeah, bang-on.

They're dead.

Oh damn!

Are you okay, downstairs?

We're waiting for you. What are you doing?

What you said about their money...

that it's rotten.

Well, I have bad news.

I'm worth billions for them.

They won't let me go.

They won't leave you alone
as long as I'm alive.

By the way...

say thanks to Myosotis.

This may end well yet.

But this is going to end very well.

In their eyes,
we were no more than guinea pigs.

From October 2027 to March 2035,

Donevia k*lled 30,126 people.

All of it was perfectly legal.

Of freedom, Equality and fraternity,

there was nothing left.

There was only one spark
to the revolution.

I would never bet on him.
