CARBON - Summary
SPRYTEC LAB is a startup started by a group – MIKE, MARK, JOHN, PETER, YASIR and primarily concentrates on robotics works for a bigger company – Warehouse Inc.The movie opens with an event hosted by Warehouse and Sprytec where they display their recent inventions, including the advancements in technologies using Graphene of which the notable are – super strong material, evolving electronic chips, efficient LASER generation of Gigawatts range, invisible shields, Extraordinary levels of electric capacitance etc. In the speech given by the CEO of Warehouse, he talks about all the achievements and the next project, for the military applications, combining all of the special abilities of Graphene.
After a few days, we see the Sprytec research lab, where Mike introduces to others, two more new lead researchers to the rest of the team, Emil Wills and Bertha Stevenson, of which the team works primarily with Emil.
As the team progresses with the project, they hear a huge set of research data was hacked by a team of hackers, working as a funded subsidiary of anonymous – Unanimous. Since the project they are working on involves data that are far more confidential, they are forced to consider high level of encryption. So they adopt a system of multi-layer encryption using successive keys of each lead member of Sprytec. The keys are backed up to an independent satellite cloud so that the data can be retrieved, even if something happens to any member.
The team tries to integrate the LASER technology to the robot. But an accident occurs at the lab. But we realize Emil, who was accidentally subjected to extreme LASER pulse, escapes scratch free. Plus, he 'saves the day' by electrically overloading the LASER emitter using his bare hands!
To the team, however, this is unknown.
The team hears CEO of Warehouse is found dead in his home, due to reasons unknown. There are rumors that he was 'burned from the inside' and all that was left was 'ashes to sweep off the floor'.
The team, goes on a vacation for a few days.
As they were midway through the vacation, at Beril Garden, they miraculously escapes from a bomb blast. A bridge collapses on John, but is saved again by Emil, who held the whole piece above him. However, the former was laying unconscious and the team again misses the whole thing.
At the home of Uri Ezler, one of the lead investors of Warehouse, he is killed (the same way the CEO was killed) by EMIL, who watches at the former burns from inside, cracks himself open and lays on the latter's feet.
INTERVAL
The recent incidents puts a stop on the whole project. Warehouse locks down the robots created to be shipped off at the weekend.
As Emil returns to the team, he receives a strange welcome. They know the whole thing. Previous times, the cameras at both lab as well as the victim's homes were down at the time the incidents have happened. But the feeds from the bridge incident shows clearly, that Emil just held a huge piece of Concrete section with bare hands! As they ask, he answers without hesitation, the whole thing,
He is not a human, but a 'humanoid' created by an ancient civilization, the Beeltes. But creations of such humanoids led to vast destruction, that ended the whole civilization. The humanoids were never destroyed. They became the ultimate guardians of humanity. Each time they stepped to the ways of destruction, the guardians would step in and stop it, like they killed John F. Kennedy when USA reached the brink of nuclear warfare etc.
Now, his missions is to stop creation of such a mass-destructive technology, at any cost. If he had killed the team, a new team would take its place. But if he kill the funders, its the other way round.
AS the whole team finds things hard to believe, he breaks out of the building (piece of cake).
The team now is unsure what to do. They don't know what the guardian is going to do next. Then they find Peter missing. As Mark and Yasir heads to his home, its empty.
Bertha calls them, and she reveals someone had stolen the whole research data and they have lost control of the robots' uplink. In other words, they don't control them anymore.
They tries to locate the current uplink. They are attacked by a group of terrorists and render them unconscious.
They wake up at one of the labs of Sprytec. In front of them is Peter! Peter was the mole inside Sprytec, to hack the passwords of the rest. It was them who tried to kill the team by rigging bomb so that the independent satellite could be used (which had a relatively smaller security layers).
Peter, however could not complete it yet. He hacked all the passwords. But there seem to be one more layer programmed into the servers. But the rest of the team is unaware of that layer and assumes it was the guardian who did it. Peter, who doesn't believe their story, releases the robots stored in shipments. The robots break out and starts destroying the city.
They are suddenly interfered by the Guardian. The guardian is far more powerful than them, but the number of robots on the opposite side keeps him on the toes.
An epic battle is what follows. Simultaneously, the team breaks out of the lab with help from Bertha and destroys the whole lab.
The guardian has one final weapon. But he couldn't use it until then due to electromagnetic interference from the nearby sub-station. When he got sufficiently far away, he splits himself into tiny 'fly-bots', robots of the size of a millimeter and takes down the robots easily.
But then, Peter triggers a self destruction module within the robots. An explosion cause serious damage to the guardian. He reintegrates into original form, but soon destroys.
Peter is finally defeated and the whole Unanimous is captured.
The team examines the servers and they find instead of old research data, new data which would pave for better applications of Graphene in medical field.
One escaped lead member of Unanimous is summoned before two (dark) figures at a strange location. He is killed the same way at the CEO and funder, by a blast from a stick held by second figure. The stick has a 'Beetle' shaped figure engraved on it which glowed in blue.
The other figure says: “Now its time you assume the command. The games are about to change”
CREDITS
Under the sea. One huge fort. Inside, in a chamber, are several figures, resembling the guardian, resting lifelessly.
Then one is awakened.
