The path to Paradise...
is full of obstacles.
Amazing discovery made by the Stanford Research Institute
in the Plain of Giza.
The big pyramid and the Sphinx are connected by a secret passage.
"Upuaut VII" the micro-robot created by the German engineer Rudolf Gantenbrink
has discovered some subterranean caves connecting these two huge structures.
Hieroglyphic fragments suggest that the subterranean structures
were created by the "Shemsu Hor":
the followers of a cult devoted to the legendary Horus.
We are about to discover the mythical "Way of Horus".
Here are the images, shown for the first time.
The ancient Egyptians were already using an instrument like this one
to orient themselves in the desert by following the stars.
It was rediscovered thanks to an old scroll...
Remember: Every single thing around you is part of the whole picture...
Everything is connected by an invisible thread...
You just need to be able to see the connections.
We'll find right here the relics of the Egyptian ships coasting Italy.
Phaeton will no longer be a myth. We can prove it!
Abif, here we are.
Hello?
I found it. Here's almost dawn.
I'll send it to you via pneumatic tube...
Hello!
What's happening?
Someones here. I have to go.
Assistant director, someone is asking for you on the phone.
Fine. The four canonical jars of Horus from New York
need to be placed in the showcase number 33.
All right, Dr. Tule.
Hello?
Yes, I'm coming.
Something unexpected!
Please, tell Professor Al Kamar I need to go.
Don't worry, Doctor. I'll tell him.
Welcome to the eternal life.
The borders of existence will be definitely overcome.
Your precious signature, please.
Bye.
Death and Nature will be astounded,
when every creature will revive
to answer the Judgment.
The soul longing for eternity,
needs to overcome the invincible triumph of death
in order to be saved.
The borders of existence
will be definitely overcome.
Go beyond the threshold of hope.
Experience it!
Resurrection Day is coming,
when the half-living of the Moratorium
will live again.
We are waiting for you.
Resurrection Day is coming.

The third canto of the Divine Comedy of the great poet Dante Alighieri!
A volume dated the end of the nineteenth century.
The starting bid to experience Dante's Paradise is...
Scan the pictures.
Make two encrypted copies: one for me and one for the institute,
and then“.
You can remove a tiny fragment for DNA
and radiocarbon testing.
I want to know where this came from.
Well, it looks like Cyperus Papyrus, Professor.
But the test will take a least a week.
We can wait.
You can do these scans.
I'm going to make a few phone calls and...
I want to visit one of my true colleagues.
We got the results today.
This is part of the Turin Canon.
Unfortunately, the most important part is missing.
That could be a connection to the Seven Sages.
The Book of the Foundation.
The followers of Horus.
The builders of the sacred cities.
That's just amazing.
Yeah.
You must have paid a fortune for these...
You even got them past the Shuster Control.
It's damn fantastic!
Dante, these days everything is just a flow of digital data
one click away.
Not even Oligarchs could afford these relics of the past.
It's just a partial fortune, sadly. Let's sit.
I used to smoke.
That's the only thing my Father left me.
It's the only real thing beside all these memories.
Funny, isn't it'? Today it's a totally useless object.
Another vanish utopia.
Yes.
I want to get to that missing piece.
Maybe was misfiled in some different document.
You could go to Turin.
To check the catalogs!
I can't leave my mother.
Yes, I know she needs you.
I love her, too.
Shes not getting better.
We can wait, don't be long.
All rig ht?
Gk.
You may need help.
No, I prefer to dive alone. You know me.
Here, this is the point. - Yes, I see.
Look, this is your father.
What's happening?
Shit... - What?
He's coming up too fast.
Are you Ok?
Follow your heart...
The light of your most brilliant star...
will lead you to the roots...
to the Truth...
There lies the secret...
She never wanted to end up in a Moratorium,
bound to a thermic decay-suspension machine.
Hanging between life and death.
Lingering in that bubble, just to be able to talk to her
for a couple of minutes a year.
And death...
shall have no dominion.
Dead man naked they shall be one
with the man in the wind and the west moon.
When their bones are picked clean
and the clean bones gone,
they shall have stars at elbow and foot.
Though they sink through the sea they shall rise again.
Though lovers be lost
love shall not.
And death...
shall have no dominion.
Welcome to the eternal life.
Resurrection Day is coming.
When every creature will revive to answer the Judgment.
It's time to wake up.
I'm Mr. Adams. I'm looking for Mr. Shu.
The references from Prof. Moonlight grants you the necessary authorization.
You are now a “root user" of our system. A big privilege, no doubt.
But...
Actually, we've not been informed about the object of your research.
I'm looking for information about the movements of
some fragments of an ancient scroll... connected to the Turin Canon.
You can find the coordinates in my badge.
Good, Professor Adams,
I'm going to make a quick research in the digital archives.
In the meantime, could you please... - Sure.
Excellent! Thank you sir.
Thank you.
Let me see...
No, that's really strange though.
Maybe the notification is missing.
Ok don't worry, no problem.
We could try some information in the paper archives.
Could you please wait here? - For sure, no problem.
According to the Shuster law, in order to...
to get access to the archive, you need an authorization from the Ministry.
Your references are not enough. You understand?
You could try talking to the former director,
Professor Fahrid AI Kamar:
he knew the content of the museum piece by piece.
He spent his life among papers and papers.
I know he lives in a small village not far from here.
Good morning,
I'm looking for Professor Al Kamar.
Do you know him?
I am a researcher.
The Egyptian Museum of Turin sent me here.
You are a colleague, then...
You go out of the shop and turn right into the small alley.
After fifty meters you'll find an arch.
The Professors house gate is right there.
Thank you, sir.
You're not going to find him there though now.
He spends all his time inside a cave in the woods.
It's not far from here.
No'
It's impossible...
No, father wake up.
Wake up! Father!
No, do not leave me alone...
Let me stay here... Father!
Father!
No!
Father!
I want to see my father!
Father!
Rest in peace, my friend.
Eh“.!
Who are you?
Don't worry, Professor. I'm Arthur Adams.
I am an archeologist from York.
What do you want?
I'm Professor Moonlight's assistant. You should know him.
Moonlight?
Professor Al Kamar?
Yes...
so they say.
I'm doing some researches on an ancient document.
You are the only one who can help me.
Which document?
The missing fragment of the Turin Canon!
It's not so easy.
Not here“. not now.
Meet me at San Lorenz church. At sunset.
You must go now, boy.
Go!
Ah, you're here, already!
What's going on?
Listen to me, boy. This is very important:
the place where we met is the tomb of an ancient Egyptian queen.
These walls...
gives us clues for understanding the scroll you're looking for.
Look over there, do you see those roses?
The corn, Hermes... even the Pelican, too.
These stones tell us that this place was once an ancient Egyptian site,
linked to the cult of Horus.
Yes... but what about the scroll?
Another time.
Professor Al Kamar?
It's Arthur Adams, it's midnight! Our meeting...
Professor?
Who did this?
The women knows why.
Go find her!
Your car.
Wait.
See this!
I took it away from the Museum...
to keep it safe...
It ism
the fragment you are looking for.
The Egyptian queen came here
to found the new the city of the Sun,
for her father Akhenaton.
This is the new sacred land of the Egyptians...
Put me down. - Yes.
Be careful!
Shemsu Hor“.
Who are you?
SALIGIA.
I hope you well.
It's the first murder I have seen in this area.
The killer has no identity.
Unrecognizable.
No badge,
and the fingerprints have been removed with acid.
It's terrible!
We'll need a couple of hours for the retina recognition.
And the people at Moratorium...
I hope they will get something out of that brain. It's a mess.
What are you doing in this area?
I am a University assistant,
specialized in Egyptology.
Well, then you were a colleague of the director?
You could say so, just met him today for the first time.
Please, do not leave the area for the time being.
I will probably need to talk to you again.
I have a room at the Sun Hotel.
You can find me there.
Destination set.
Can I come in... please... can I?
It's you... again?
What do you want from me? I don't want to see you anymore!
I'm sorry... I just wanted to...
Oh... I'm sorry, I thought you were...
No, don't worry, ifs my fault...
I'm not used to get inside peoples houses like this, trust me.
I got your address from professor Al Kamar.
Are you Miss Sarah Eve?
Yes, it's me...
ls the professor all right? I haven't seen him for a long time.
I'm sorry the Professor was killed last night.
How did it happen?
I was there... I tried to help him...
too late...
I'm sorry. Do you want me to pass by later?
Yes, thank you...
Maybe it's better if I stay alone.
Wait!
There's something else you wanted to tell me, right?
Well... ah'..
The professor left me a last message... Or so I believe...
He told me to contact you in case something happened to him.
I'm Arthur...
Arthur Adams, I am an archaeological researcher...
I came hereto get some informations on an ancient scroll.
The Professor was the only one who could help me...
I think the murder is connected to this ancient document'
Did you know anything about his researches?
No...
I just gave him some artistic counseling...
I am a painter.
I've been working on the restoration of some sarcophagi.
But...
Why was he killed?
This was lying on the Professor's face.
I think it's a copy... but it looks very ancient, indeed.
If it's a copy...
a master might have done it.
I'll give you the contact of a top forensic consultant.
He's a good friend of mine.
Tell him I'm sending you.
I don't know anybody in this town. Could you please come with me?
I would be glad... plus is your friend.
I am too busy working... I really can't... I'm sorry.
My office could pay you well...
I'm so happy to see you...
But you never call...
This is Professor Arthur Adams.
Arthur is fine.
A mistake of my youth.
Here's a small present for you...
A real mystery.
What do you think it is?
Just a moment.
Do you think is gonna find connections?
Connections seem invisible,
but they are just hidden behind the surface.
You simply scratch...
and they burst out, like fireworks.
Only those who have eyes to see...
can spot them... of course.
You know...
he's a strange guy...
a man of science...
He knows a lot about religion,
Kabala, even metaphysics.
He's a pure researcher... with no prejudices.
He puts no limit to knowledge... - No...
it's not just a replica,
not a recent one, at least...
It must be dating back to the XVI century.
The brushstrokes...
they seem...
Hieronymus Bosch!
Let's call a friend of mine... An enlightened mind, a real expert.
Just a moment.
What did I tell you?
He's just a bit weird.
It's me, how are you doing?
I need to talk to you.
... I would like to end my speech with this book,
In it... you'll find the analysis of the relationships between two groups.
One had been: the Faithful of Love,
which Dante was undoubtedly a member.
The other had been: the Brotherhood of the Free Spirit,
which no doubt Bosch was an attendant.
Both groups were aware of the Egyptian philosophy
and the ideas of the Followers of Horus.
Curiously, both men were interested
in the seven deadly sins...
It been said that both men
were particularly sparing.
I'm myself...
guilty of that vice.
This text is... extremely expensive.
In conclusion, I like to read you something...
I think you may understand.
This tercet from the Paradise,
where Dante talks about the mystical Rose.
"The Love, beneath whose warmth this flower has grown in eternal
peace, flamed once again in your womb”.
Listen Tully... we've found a piece of canvas,
it looks like Bosch's, it's Pride...
I've heard that story as a rumor, a legend.
Bosch created a series of drawings,
before settling them into one.
A guy came to see me,
and he was asking me a lot of questions...
about the drawings.
He was mentioning some kind of plot...
You see!
So, I think he was nuts... mad.
A crazy man.
So, I send him off I told him to go away.
But I remember his name:
Frank Mare.
As a poet Virgil surname.
Thank you very much, Taron. Ok, see you later.
He found this guy, Frank Maro.
He's been busted a few times for violence and intimidation.
He's now living in an underground area of the town... slums.
A shelter for thieves and invisible people.
So, let's go.
Look!
People call it the Gate of Hell...
a mysterious place.
Attention, don't come in. It's dangerous for you!
We're looking for a man called Frank Maro.
Can you help us? - What do you want'? Go away!
Come on!
No'
He will be good to you if you don't challenge him...
He's Gengis...
I know where to find the man you are looking for...
I can help you.
But, he's the one who set the price.
I know where you can find him...
I can bring you to him...
It will be expensive though...
How much?
Let's say a 50 post-credits pass gallery.
A 30 post-credits pass is enough!
Ok, let's go.
The pass, first!
Arthur.
Arthur, let's go. - Sure.
Follow your heart...
The light of your most brilliant star...
will lead you to the roots...
to the Truth...
Here we are, it's him.
Who the hell are you?
You've come here to kill me, right?
I know nothing,
I've seen nothing.
Get away... leave me alone!
Don't worry, we don't mean to hurt you.
Don't be scared, we only want informations'
What?
James, are you Ok?
Get him out of here.
Take him away!
I'll be after you.
Let's g0 away!
They're looking for me.
I'm coming...
I'm coming with you...
Wait for me, please.
I'm coming with you!
You must help us...
You must tell us everything you know about Boscns paintings. Ok?
We will protect you, don't be scared.
You don't know
who these guys are.
You can't imagine. They can reach everywhere...
Nothing can stop them.
Nobody can!
They... they... Who are "they“?
Frank, please, listen to me.
You must help us, now!
Please...
it's too dangerous...
For me, for you Miss...
and for everybody.
Believe me!
It's for your own good.
For everybody's good.
Who knows about this story?
There's a writer...
He's living in a small village in the mountains...
He's a Count...
Rosebud...
He's been living and working there all his life.
The name, damn it!
His name is Francis Rosebud.
I know nothing else about him.
He's the heir of the Count who built the village.
I hope you're not trying to trick us!
I'm not cheating.
I know very little about all this.
The other ones know...
I have nothing to do with it.
Nothing! Nothing!
Why did they want to hide the truth?
I don't know.
I don't know!
They're very dangerous people.
But Rosebud...
I know...
He wanted to talk.
Yes, he has written things that...
That's enough for me.
I don't know anything else.
Leave me alone...
Leave me alone!
That's all we can get from this man...
using this white-glove treatment, at least.
Look... Look what they say about the Count.
He's a scientist, a mathematician...
He's discovered some links between the works of Nicolas Tesla
and a mysterious structure hidden inside the Pyramid of Cheops,
the Zed!
Hes been expelled by the University on a charge of molesting.
Here, at an essays presentation, he's with a model...
They look very intimate. Can we trace her down?
No... no she's not a model...
She's an agent of a para-governmental organization
of the big "Z".
It's an escort service for the oligarchs.
They're called “Priss"
"High pleasure models".
I've questioned her for an ongoing investigation,
but she's not involved.
Well, I can contact the girl...
Then I can arrange a meeting if you want...
We're making a TV show
about magic towns and we need a presenter.
We've saw you in an article about the Count of Rosebud.
Our show is starting precisely over there.
A strange coincidence, isn't it?
Yes, I love coincidences...
They attract me and scare me all the same.
Do you personally know the Count?
We'd like to talk to him and meet him...
to gather informations for our TV show.
The Count is an excellent customer, very gentle and kind.
Yesterday, I was with him.
Sometimes he invites me to his place. A really ghostly place.
If you go there... you could have your arm healed.
There is a mysterious woman, Althea,
living next to the village church.
She's a real healer and you can ask her for information, too...
Shes spent her entire life in the village.
Where she was born.
I was waiting for you...
I've a constant pain in my arm.
It's there, since I was badly wounded...
Let me see...
Yes...
Yes, I can do something... Wait for me here.
How do you heal the sick people who come to see you?
All my ancestors had a gift and were healers...
My mother before me,
her mother before her...
and so on,
from immemorial time... the touch of the “Masca”
is a gift, not a job...
it's a mission.
My ancestors got their “Art“ directly from Thoth,
the ancient god of Medicine.
Can I ask you something?
Of course, my dear, tell me.
We've come here to find a man: the Count Rosebud.
I guessed it, of course.
Can you help us?
Francis was born here.
He bears the same name of his ancestor,
the nobleman who built the village. But hes very different.
He has wasted all his money in some unclear business.
He lives with his sister,
a strange woman...
She never comes to the village, she spends all her time in the cemetery.
Her son died immediately after birth,
no chance to put him in the Moratorium, too young.
A fatherless son.
Francis never comes to the village either.
They live in the castle above the village.
It's her, I guess.
Let's go and talk to her.
Sorry to bother you, Madam.
We're looking for the Countess Rosebud.
Can you help us?
Young Countess... The young Countess...
Yes.
Yes, it's me. What do you want?
We're looking for your brother, the Count Francis.
And what do you want from him?
Miss Nora Segni told us we could find him here.
We wanted to talk to him about the origins of Rosebud.
He's in town for some business. He will be back tonight.
You can find him at the village inn.
He spends his dinner time there, with his friends.
I have to go now.
I will tell him about your visit.
Don't worry!
I'm glad you come with me.
My arm... ls not aching anymore...
Did you know, everywhere we look,
there his some traces of Egypt.
Maybe, we are on the right track...
or maybe...
it's just your imagination.
Yeah.
The Countess has just called... The Count is inviting you to his castle.
They live in the castle.
Follow those alleys,
pass under... our magic door...
reach the fountain of live...
go staight... and there you are.
Please, come in.
Thank you.
My brother is waiting for you.
Welcome... thank you for accepting my suddenly invitation.
I hope I can help you.
Please.
My dear “friend", Nora...
told me you are interested in making a TV show about Rosebud.
Yes, we are preparing a series about the magic towns of Piedmont.
I've been studying the same subject for many years.
It looks like the whole area of Piedmont
has the shape of a huge town...
with precise mathematical proportions.
An open-sky sanctuary.
A heritage from the Egyptian models.
Far more than this,
every architectural model...
is in perfect harmony with the human proportions,
I've been searching for perfection through the body my whole life.
I'm especially interested in the female shape...
As my master Tesla, I consider the female body
as the symbol of the primordial energy.
The human body as an energy transmitter...
Wait a minute. I want to show you something.
Don't worry about the Shuster Law, my friends...
Now, have a close look: the Tesla's Tower has the same structure of the Zed.
Here the Zed is inserted in the Ankh key...
Tesla was prevented from ending his work...
so bad.
Let's go back to Rosebud, now...
That's the reason of your visit, right?
Yes.
This area has been breeding many Master Masons,
skillful about alchemical and hermetic symbols.
Nicolao, the famous stone-cutter,
was working in the nearby Abbey of St. Michael.
The Abbey of St. Michael...
is one of the Gates of Heaven.
As Rosebud: a sacred place.
My ancestor was a very influent man...
in this hall, many important figures of the XIX century
have gathered from all over Europe.
Look at the Starry Sky...
it's the last relic of those bright times'
Sorry to bother you, Count. It's for you.
Thank you.
Excuse me.
Hello?
Thank you.
Sorry, a friend's in trouble.
But we can talk again tomorrow, right?
Em, who are you'?
This is the Police, are you Arthur Adams?
Yeah.
Sorry, but Mr. Moonlight has been killed.
What?
How did happen?
We can't give you information, you've to come here immediately.
Of course, no informations.
We don't have a clue, we've only an ancient painting.
What, a painting?
Yeah, I've to come here tomorrow.
No, I'm coming right now, immediately.
There is no reason for this murder.
You know Agent, when I was in Italy for my researches.
A similar murder happened there, same patterns...
I think they're connected.
You can ask for information from the agent Taron Irons in Turin...
Just a second.
York's agent here, Detective McGuire. Are you the agent Iron'?
Yes, it's me.
Do you know Mr. Adams?
Yes, S know him, he's a very good guy.
I guarantee for him.
He's not involved in this murder.
You were right.
The Italian agent witnessed for you...
But, please, remain at our disposal.
Professor Ludwig Adrian Moonlight
has made you his universal heir.
He left a small part of his fortune to the Foundation.
He must have loved you very much.
He was like a father to me...
My mentor.
This was included in Moonlighfs...
last will.
I leave you here.
Arthur...
you were like a son to me.
So I decided to make you m y heir in every sense.
I trust you will find the way t0 follow your destiny...
and continue our search without me.
Remember."
the true nature of things is always hidden.
This is your journey.
Be strong!
Be yourself...
and be goddamn genius!
Good Luck, my boy.
...and then the notary gave me a postal package,
a confidential box... and a letter.
Inside, there was the missing scroll.
And the letter?
It was totally in the Professor's style.
He wrote me about a task I've to accomplish.
We've to go back to the Egyptian Museum.
Everything started over there.
There must be something I'm missing.
We've to dig inside the paper archives. - No, it's crazy.
It's a major violation of the Shustefls law.
We'll end up in jail!
No one can enter in the archives, Ok?
It's too dangerous.
Nothing is impossible.
A dear friend of mine is working in the archives.
What are you doing? Go back to your bed!
No time to rest. I'm fine.
Esther, ifs nice to see you.
It's a long time. Can we go? - Yeah.
It's done.
Esther will let us get inside the archives'
But you have to be very careful.
Just the two of them...
You stay here with me.
There are so many things you have to tell me.
Ok, then.
Pay attention,
and look at every detail that can help us.
Thank you.
So...
I go this way, you can go the other. - Ok.
Sarah, are you Ok?
Sarah, where are you?
Are you all right?
Are you Ok?
Why didn't you answer me?
I heard you... but I didn't want to scream.
I was far from you, trying to find the light switch.
It switched off automatically.
Are you Ok?
I feel better now. What did you find?
I just had a look.
Inside this folder there's a document mentioning our scroll...
and the followers of Horus
connected with the seven deadly sins.
They mention the god Thot
and strange links with Dante, Egypt and Bosch.
The author of the document is a woman: Sandra Tule.
Here, she talks about something kept in the Abbey of St. Michael.
We've to show this document immediately to James,
maybe he can find other connections. - Ok.
We've found something.
St. Michael... St. Michael Abbey.
My friends... Welcome to Paradise.
I'm father Hugo.
I assume, you're here to see the Abbey? - Yes.
As you can see,
Paradise is difficult to reach!
Your friend seems like is not in condition for such a difficult walk.
Perhaps I can get in the car with you,
we go to the main gate and then we can walk from there.
Thank you.
Lovely.
...sooner or later this road is going to kill me.
If not that, the beer and the sandwiches will...
Anyway,
it's better to go with a full stomach, yes?
And surely, the air of this sacred place
will have me go as a happy man!
Thank you for you company.
Enjoy the Abbey. - Thank you.
I'm going to the dining hall,
after such a rigorous walk, one sh0uld've something of substance.
Enjoy.
It was carved by Nicolao.
My friends are still here.
Excellent!
How about I take you for a behind-the-scenes tour?
And how about you?
Are you coming?
Yes, I'm coming...
Maybe that man wants to come, too...
What man?
No, he's not there anymore.
...as I was saying before,
the Abbey is dedicated to the Archangel Michael...
Here, he's crushing the tempting devil. As you know...
The temptations of Satan can be intense...
and only the Saints can resist them.
One temptation I can't resist is: Gluttony.
Why everybody always blames the gluttons'?
Dante puts them in Hell. Bosch paints them eating like pigs.
Everybody has to eat, right?
Ah, I have a real treasure for you.
It's my favourite... come!
The chapel down below was built in the 5th Century.
Incredible, ahl?
Come up here, I get something very special for you. Please.
The Susa Valley.
Arthur!
Don't worry, he must be inside the Abbey,
we'll find him later.
He can't get lost... there's only one way down.
The Susa Valley which provided a passage for the Longobards in the 6th Century.
You're looking straight across the mountain to France.
Paradise.
Don't scream! A sudden awakening could make him fall.
Oh my... Stay here.
Arthur.
Wake up...
St' Michael...
Head of the heavenly army...
Please, help this man...
Save this man... Spare this man...
Archangel of the Heavens.
You have the power. Please, give him the power.
Give him the strength!
Heal him!
Please, St. Michael.
What happened?!
I was flying in the void... An angel with a birds face
slow down my fall. Was it a dream?!
No. You really fell.
Impossible, it was real?
I go to call an ambulance.
I was a child, I was fine. My father...
Did you see him? The angel used his sword...
Don't worry, be quiet.
He used his sword to hit the dragon.
The dragon disappeared.
On the top of the sword it was a key...
A broken key!
What a strange dream...
Maybe...
I got it!
It was all true.
But...
Where is that man gone?
Is he your friend? Can we trust him?
Those who look for the truth are more than friends.
They're brothers.
Hello.
Good to see you.
You are welcome.
Let's go to the next room.
It's quieter... and no one will bother us.
The broken key...
both an ancient symbol of wisdom and our circle,
but the Ankh“
There are some connections to the Egyptian Tradition
of Horus and Thot...
There're many, many interpretations.
Interpretations... such as?
Certain things cannot be shared.
Always secrets.
But of course, dear boy... Life is full of secrets.
And we cannot digest them all at once.
It takes time and patience.
We must reach deep and find our own understanding.
The broken key represents the impossibility
to discovered a secret even if ifs in front of our eyes,
under our nose!
The broken key comes to us in many ways...
Yes but, what's its meaning?
Explaining a symbol,
is like telling someone how to feel in front of the first love
or in front of a work of Art...
There're as many feelings... as people in the world.
Clear?
No...
Well, so much for explanations.
But if you truly want to discover the secret
you have to dive into the symbol itself
by entering into your soul. The path of the perfect man...
like the Androgyny in Bosch's painting.
James, give me some water, please...
Yeah, sure.
You must embody the broken key...
become one with it...
in order to find...
where the Truth is concealed.
Symbols, secrets, metaphors...
They are all paths
to help us realize
what would be incomprehensible.
Then, like the Pelican with its little ones,
we will feed our children with what we have understood.
Remember...
this city is protected by angels.
And the Pelican is the symbol of the Angels.
From Egypt, through Saliceto,
the Ankh key.
Queen Ankese-pa-A ton
and finally the Abbey of St. Michael.
Here We find the Ankh key. but ifs broken...
Arthur!
Stay quiet!
There's nothing, here.
Where's the key?
Far from people like you!
What do you want? Leave Sarah alone.
She has nothing to do with it. - Tomorrow,
at midnight,
at the fountain of Solferino Square...
Be just a minute late, and...
I see you got it.
The truth...
is just in front of your eyes.
That man in black!
Who? What man?
That man in black... he took Sarah“.
Sarah? Where is she?
We've to give him what he wants.
We've to give up... We've to him the key.
The forces ruling the world are far more powerful than us all.
What I know is when the storm is coming,
every man must act according to his true nature'
Some are stuck in terror,
some others run away or try to hide,
some others...
spread their wings and start to fly...
You're right, James.
War can't be eliminated
but just postponed to our enemy's advantage.
I'm calling Taron.
The Pelican...
feeds its sons with its own flesh.
The Truth...
can be seen only through the eyes of death.
But it must be illuminated by the sun at its highest peak.
The Truth
is just in front of your eyes.
21st June 2033
Summer Solstice - 11.59 p. m. Midnight.
Regulus, the diamond of the sky,
shines with the brightest splendor at the Summer Solstice..
The constellation of the Lion... The facade of the Church...
The path of the Worthy.
Special places in the city.
The masters of the XIX century have shaped Turin
with some important monuments linked to the symbols of magic.
Like in the Book of the Fondazione of Edfu.
The Seven Sages...
I must look for these places,
as if the entire town was a great philosophical abode...
Angels replace the Egyptian gods...
I told you to come alone!
What are your friends doing over there?
Now everything will be worse for you.
No one can cover your back!
Go, go, go! - Hurry up...
or your friend is going to die before sunrise!
Where should I go?
You must find Bosch's pelican!
Only when you are as innocent as a dove and as wise as a snake,
can you hope to find the Truth.
But the painting is in Berlin, not here...
Where can I find a pelican in Turin?
Maybe, he mean something else...
Yeah.
This city is protected by the angels.
I've already been to the Angelic Fountain... Nothing! Nothing!
An ancient legend...
talks about an angel flying above Europe through Turin...
SALIGIA. Remember this clearly:
the Latin acronym of the seven deadly sins!
Every titan wants to go back to his original state
to the divine creature he once was.
Here the Zed is inserted in the Ankh key...
Someone is using Art to spread his wisdom...
and Ari is like a breath of wind bringing change.
The Truth can't be revealed all at once.
Statuto Square! Yes! I must reach Statuto Square.
There is another angel, over there!
A dove and a snake, together.
Dove and snake, together. The angel of the metamorphosis:
the snake becoming a dove and flying away.
It's Lucifer, the Angel bearer of the light... The star.
The Angel with his feet on the rocks and his head in the sky...
Yes!
Damn it, I can't find the pelican here!
No, it's not the pelican!
What is he looking at?
Yes, the Great Mother.
On the right, a man is holding the Tables of the Law,
on the left there is Charity, with an angel looking at the chalice,
the Sacred Grail, the Christ, the Pelican...
who feeds his sons with his own flesh.
No!
It's impossible! Nicholas...
Another angel is flying away...
Sarah, where are you?
Some are stuck in terror,
some others run away or try to hide,
some others...
spread their Wings and start to fly.
Sarah!
Father!
I am Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow...
I have the Power to give life back.
Father, I understand... finally.
What's happening?
The the flying angel is the Angel of the Tower.
There was once an angel of the tower... on top of it.
He fell because of a storm...
The angelic fountain, Lucifer, the Grail, the Pelican,
the Angel looking at the Grail held by a dreaming woman.
No... No, she's looking at the Angel on the Tower!
I'm Lucifer,
I am Osiris and Horus
searching for the Light.
I can't believe it!
It's like the old cathedrals.
This city is a great open-sky sanctuary!
The Antonelliana Tower, it's a portal to the Light!
It's like the Sphinx in the Plain of Giza!
The Angel! The Angel was over there!
Finally...
the way to Paradise.
Let's
It's a star. It stands for knowledge.
Once, there was a winged genius, up there...
an angel of fire.
He was a protector of secrets.
Those secrets that could not be revealed.
It has been hidden at the base of the genius.
They didn't want it to be found.
Because if revealed,
that knowledge ill use... could...
it could crush the world... the world as we know it'
But should the Knowledge belong to everybody.
Some people don't think so.
They had the angel struck down by thunder.
So the secret was concealed...
I don't understand.
Two different forces are working together.
They have concealed the secret...
in the tower, once more.
The star of Knowledge.
The highest point in town.
It's still there!
It's still there...
waiting for someone to find it...
and to decide...
if to keep it or to show it to the world...
Hey!
Don't do it!
No! Don't do it!
You, bastard!
Why?
Are you Ok?
Are you feeling all right?
Are you hurt?
It's ok. I've just slipped. Thank you.
Lucy.
Let's go.
It's time.
I've to go.
Do you know how to use the key?
What does it open?
If you don't know what to do, just leave the key here.
Someone more deserving than you will continue the quest.
You must to learn to ask the right questions.
Only then, you will really receive an answer'
Must the key be reconstituted
or should it be left broken?
Is man ready to reconstitute it?
This is the right question.
A whole key could...
reveal some...
ill-timed surprises!
If man is not ready...
Who is the guardian?
You are the guardian.
Your heart is pure now.
We're here.
You may pass.
Arthur!
Let's go.
Give me the key. It's my turn to go ahead.
No, we must go all together.
I told you to give me the key.
Taron, what are you doing?
Shut up, old man!
The key!
Bastard, now I understand!
War can't be eliminated,
but just postponed to our enemy's advantage.
Houzzai!
James, are you Ok?
Don't worry about me.
Go on, I will join you later.
We must go on, it's vital! - Go, what are you waiting for?
I am fine... don't worry. - Ok, let's go.
No!
You can't win, you have to give up.
Maybe...
you'll have some hope.
Then?
Only if you give UP»
can still have hope.
You are not real.
You can't hurt me.
Arthur!
Sarah.
Are you Ok?
Yes it's fine!
Could you give me the light?
Sure, here you are.
The Gate of the Duat.
The Gate of Heaven for the pure of heart.
The key of the Gods.
Those who hold it, are the masters of life and death.
Man...
know yourself and become God.
Keep it with you, until the right time comes.
It's yours.
Your time.
The way of Horus is still operating.
Traces have been found in the Italian branch
oi the most important Egyptian Museum, after Cairo...
