All language subtitles for the war between land and sea

All over the world, humanity reacts to
the simple fact that the species that

came before us has woken up. We would
speak with him.

We're putting an enormous amount of
pressure on one man.

Tissue samples.

Let it on enemy.

It'll be the death of the energy
industry, of your livelihood.

We'll be sliding into recession.

We cannot hear or see or breathe.

Now tell me why we should live like
this.

For just one day longer.

Mum. Oh, my God.

They're cleaning up the ocean. They're
pressing the police and all of it.

They're giving it back.

All across Manhattan, the sky is raining
plastic.

They're declaring war.

Our next meeting will be here.

Your man's trench.

One of the deepest waterways on the
planet.

Will you meet us, Barkley, at the bottom
of the ocean?

Okay.

Let's go, people.

Welcome to Blackford.

We don't have much time, but we've
appointed the best naval training

to prep us for the descent.

They'll be doing everything they can to
prime us both physically and mentally.

Monitor our stamina, heart rate, and
blood pressure.

And help get us used to the water.

We'll be descending to the rendezvous
point of the Submersible, to a depth of

,000 meters, five miles down.

Our journey will take two hours and 17
minutes.

The Submersible is currently on a launch
vessel with warship escorts bound for

the descent point.

On the dive will be the Ambassador,
myself, Captain Mackey for

myself for science and technology,
and...

Our two diplomatic representatives, Mr.
Singh.

Robbie.

And Mr. Campbell.

Ted, it's a pleasure.

Have we ever been this deep before?

Small emissions of one or two people.
Nothing of the scale.

And I bet they were trained specialists
with years of experience. We have days

to prepare for this. Yeah, of course
there's a risk.

What we're doing today is unprecedented,
but this is the toughest submersible on

the planet.

This is Kate Lethbridge -Stewart for
launch battle.

Captain Gates, how are we doing?

Just finishing final check.

Pre

-launch

check's complete.

Submersible ready for deploy.

Things go wrong all the time.

Why does this bring the leak?

That kind of pressure, you'll be crushed
to death, pulverized in an instant.

Watch it. Keep your voice down.

If you do this, you might never come
back.

Now, once we arrive at the descent
point, Homo Aqua will transfer us to

their environment.

Well, what about the descent? Are they
helping us with that?

For the descent, we're on our own.

We're not alone.

We're never alone.

Sorry?

We're a team.

Okay. Yeah.

Transferred by helicopters at 0600.

Indemnity forms need signing and legal
have noted you haven't replied to their

emails.

You do need to make sure your will is up
to date.

Is it, then?

Do I get a hug before I go?

It might take weeks to clean the roads.

The city's been shut down. You can't go
anywhere.

Yeah, well, it's luckier back here,
then, isn't it?

We're at war.

I know. I'm going to thought it.

How?

How are you going to thought anything?

Do you know what they're calling you on
TikTok?

Oh, I don't really care. They say you're
useless.

Traitor. Bootlicker, bleeding heart
puppet, too thick to negotiate.

That's not fair.

It doesn't matter, because either way
we're screwed.

Either they kill us, or we kill
ourselves.

I hate the lot of you.

They're worried sick about you. Yeah, I
know.

I'm sorry, but I promise you I'm going
to be fine. No, no, no, no, no. Please,

please, please don't.

Got this?

Okay.

I can do this.

I mean, for God's sake, I nursed mum
through cancer, didn't I?

Didn't I?

Bloody hell, if I can get through that,
oh, I can get through anything, can't I?

I can't be strong for everyone else,
right? Because everyone's counting on

Okay? So, because it's a whole world.

You don't have to be strong for me.

Oh, my... Oh, I'm so scared.

I'm so scared.

Right,

that's it.

Okay, now.

Three months.

Three months. I'm not going down for
this.

Of course you are.

You're going to come back a hero.

You know that, right?

This will set us up for life.

Speaking tours, book deals, the works.

You think I'll get a girlfriend out of
it?

They're going to be queuing up, mate.

All you've got to do is hang in there.

You know, sometimes I can hear my life
coach.

Hold the line, Ted.

That's what he'd say in moments like
these. Moments of fear.

Of self -doubt.

Believe in yourself, trust in fate, and
hold the line.

I got struck by lightning, dead at 50.

Seriously?

What's in the box?

Diplomatic gift.

From all nations.

supposed to do with the globe?

They see the word from underneath,
right?

From the depths.

Never like this.

Where are they going to put it at?

Who knows?

Maybe they've got, like, coral
mantelpieces.

Aren't you fazed by any of this?

We're going to be fine.

Loot floats.

In the words of a great man, we can be
heroes.

Let's save the world.

The other hatch.

Controls are all units.

We are clear.

Confirm lock.

Captain Gates handing control over to
you.

Okay, let's pick it up.

Let's move it out.

Taking you off the ship now. Good luck
everybody.

Good luck to you all.

That's all looking stable, sir. Over.

Deployment is go.

Control deck, all readings are stable.

We are good to go. Over.

You okay, Ted?

Terrific. Yep.

Can be.

On my mark.

In three, two, one.

Mark.

Seven minutes.

Gone dark already.

No sunlight.

Imagine living like this all the time.

Anyway, we're fine, aren't we?

Can I get a yes, Ted?

Yes, Ted.

I've got some team bonding work games,
if anyone's interested.

No, thank you.

Who'd you end up here anyway?

There was a diplomatic lottery for the
last two seats, and India won. Or

lost, depending how you see it.

There was rumours flying around that the
draw was rigged, that most people had

their names removed because they didn't
want to go.

I mean, one way to look at it is we're
pioneers.

Like those early astronauts, you know?
Where would we be if they hadn't taken

that one giant leap?

Oh, what the hell is that?

It's adjusting to the pressure.

Are you sure?

It's okay, Ted. Just breathe.

No, I'm breathing. I'm fine.

What do you think we'll get for dinner?

When we're back on the ship tonight,
hmm?

Think they'll spoil us? They bloody
should.

No.

It'll just be canteen sandwiches again.

Stop being a hero.

Is this... Is this water?

This is water.

There is water in here. Right behind the
ship, Ted.

Calm down. It's condensation.

How the hell do you know? Because I read
page six of the safety briefing.

Sorry.

I guess if there was a breach, this
thing would implode before we knew about

Can everyone just...

Shut up now, please.

The economy is already tanking. If we
start closing shipping lanes, the effect

could be catastrophic.

Sorry, sir. Kate Lethbridge -Stewart.

Okay. It is a directive of the United
Nations that you may have a voice in any

emergency discussion. Sorry, we started
a little early. A lot of people couldn't

make it. Some of the cabinet are joining
remotely.

With respect, it's a phone call.

I'll catch up. Please, carry on.

The United States relies on maritime
trade, and we will defend ourselves

vigorously against any disruption to our
networks.

The U .S. military is arming itself with
sonic weaponry.

Sound cannons are used for crowd
control, but we've adapted the

underwater use.

We've identified key shipping lanes we
need to protect.

The English Channel, the Panama Canal,
the Suez.

Ultra -high -frequency blasts could
disable or confuse Homo Aqua, paving the

for traditional weapons, if required.

Sorry, why are we discussing weapons?
Our focus is on diplomacy.

And there is an armistice agreement in
place now to stop further violence.

Someone's got to be the first to break
it. Sir, our focus should be on

diplomacy. That's why six of our
diplomats are risking their lives today.

They're buying time.

That's all they're doing. It's long and
dense, smoke and mirrors.

The gentleman's right.

We make decisions. Here, in this room.

The Western Front, the Falklands, Iraq.

Wars are fought and won at this table.

They think they own the water.

But while they were splashing around 300
million years ago, we crawled out of

the water.

And we conquered it.

We built a civilization that depends on
our oceans to power our homes, feed our

crops, and keep us alive. Keep you in
business?

Sorry, but I agree with Kate.

Their civilization is so ancient and so
powerful.

Aren't they a gift?

Couldn't they help solve not just the
climate crisis, but so much more?

If... We had them on side.

We're never going to get them on side.

They want us gone.

If they wanted us gone, I think that
would have already happened.

If they were gone, we could have access
to their technology. Think of it.

Treasure from the ocean floor.

This is a diplomatic crisis, not a
pirate raid. It's what the West does

Colonize and plunder. I'm sorry, but I'm
60 % water.

We all are.

Don't tell me we don't own the water.

If Homo Aqua want a war between the land
and the sea, we'll take the sea. So

this kind of rhetoric is irresponsible.

If you're trying to keep the peace,
you've already failed.

If you're not on side, we might have to
reconsider our options.

Diplomatic responsibility can easily be
transferred. What do you hear?

A global emergency committee could guide
Homo aqua through a peace process that

puts mankind first, not you. Sorry, what
is Keith doing in an emergency meeting?

It is not cabinet or agency and his
companies at this very moment.

still pumping millions of litres of
sewage into our waterways. This process

take -time. And don't get me started on
General Giselier, who leaked

confidential information to the press. I
think you need to calm down, love. This

is a national security matter. The fact
is, we need industry and our allies on

side.

We can't do this alone.

What's going to happen down there?
Hurry, come on. We've already said we

know. So what if this is a trick and
they want hostages?

We didn't take any hostages. Why should
they?

Because that's what happens in war.

I promise you, we're going to sort this.

OK, I don't know how we will, but we
will. Because my kid is not living

a war.

I never had kids.

If I get out of here, I'm going to call
my brother.

We haven't spoken for 20 years.

First thing I'm doing is taking my
family out for the meals.

All 19 of us.

19?

Yeah. Yeah.

And I'm paying.

It's hot.

This suit.

How deep are we? All right, Ted. Come
on. Come on, Ted. Don't think about it.

watched this show where they made a
human out of pig parts.

Bones and meat.

And they put it in a diving suit and
they...

They tested it for deep sea pressure.
Mr. Campbell. It just turned to soup in

split second. No one wants to hear this.
I don't want to be souped.

All right, okay, it's okay. You're okay.
Ted, come on, come on. Look at me. Just

breathe, just breathe now. Breathe now,
please, with me.

Okay? Slow and steady.

With me.

Because we're a team, aren't we?

Yeah?

Turn that off, please.

A few days ago, the situation was dire.

We were staring down the barrel of
unprecedented financial and energy

Now it's catastrophic.

We cannot surrender control of this
planet.

Look what they did to us in 15 minutes.
If they wanted to, they could wipe us

out. UNIT are looking after their own
interests.

It is our moral duty to stop Aquakind
however we can.

I know you have a lot on your plate
right now. Alison has tests today.

She'll be with her.

I already know you value my opinion.

And maybe my money. The generals have
decades of military strategy under their

belts. Let us guide you. Take the
pressure off.

When I became Prime Minister, I made a
promise to my grandchildren to leave

country better than I found it.

Sir, if we don't win this war, and war
is what it is, there will be no

grandchildren.

But we believe there is a way through
this.

A new stratagem.

Just between us.

We're calling it Severance.

I found some instant coffee.

And... biscuits.

I won't ask you what you had to do for
those.

Yeah, let's not.

They'll be okay.

But you look exhausted.

I've had six hours of sleep in three
days.

This morning I showered in a sink.

Sent good people five miles under the
ocean and sat through a Coburn meeting

with a rummful of warmongers.

You need a break.

They want to shut you in and out.

And if we lose control, who steps in?

Who decides the future of the human
race?

Sorry, the merciful is entering the
deepest part of the trench.

Yes.

Get me Captain Gates. I want a situation
report AS18.

This is uncharted territory.

They're off the maps now.

This will be the longest night of our
lives.

What's that? What happened?

I think we stopped.

Are we on a seabed?

Negative.

This is SU -1 to surface.

Surface, this is SU -1.

Hello?

anyone there my god

we're not even again but

captain what's happening we're moving at
12 knots 18 knots these

readings don't make sense that's not
possible 13 knots something's taking

control

How are they moving so far?

Captain! What? Are they being dragged?

Think so. They're descending twice as
fast.

Steve, how's the pressure?

Pressure's holding.

We've lost comms. Ping the transponder.
No response.

Okay, do you feel that? Do you feel like
we're descending?

What? There's no radio contact.

Oxygen's normal. The cables are
functioning. We're just cut off.

The pressure on the hull is 1 ,200 HPA.

Wait, is that good or bad? Well, that's
like sea level.

Cut the pressure on land, except we're
five miles down.

Five miles.

What? We inside something?

The hot system's gone down.

Oh, my God. Helmets down, everyone.
Backers should kick in any second.

This is a trap. They're going to kill
us. Be quite, they test. Shut up.

Well, that's it.

Let's back up.

There's something at the hatch.

It's them!

Who's going first?

Is that Cave?

I don't know. Wait there.

It's alive.

Temperature is 21 degrees Celsius, which
is impossible.

The atmosphere is breathable, not just
breathable, it's perfect.

This place is incredible.

You can come out now, be careful.

There's a drop.

It's some kind of membrane.

Billions of tons of water behind it.

One tear in that membrane.

Watch your step.

The ground's uneven.

If this is the ground.

What the hell was that?

Decontamination. Everyone okay?

What is this place?

It's like nothing in the world.

It's like hell.

Welcome.

Where exactly are we?

Deeper than any human has ever been.

You can remove your apparatus.

No, wait.

This environment has been prepared for
you.

Will you trust me, Barclay?

It's okay.

The roof's leaking!

There is no roof.

What?

But you are safe.

I'd prefer to keep this known.

As you wish.

It's fatigue.

You're running on empty.

All this pressure, taking it all.

Pretty soon you're going to be of no use
to anyone.

I feel fine.

After 48 hours, the brain and the body
start to shut down.

I've seen it happen, and I'm watching it
happen to you.

If I reported you, you'd be escorted
from the building. Except you wouldn't

that.

The delicates are miles beneath the
surface in radio silence for hours.

There's nothing else you can do right
now.

But soon as they're back, we need you on
form, rested, and ready for whatever

comes next.

You're amazing.

But you're not invincible.

Either I take you home to rest, or I
report you.

My apartment is a fully equipped comms
hub. We'll work from there.

So, how is it light down here?

Well, many of the organisms are
bioluminescent.

Bacteria, plankton, species of fish.

So are we inside an organism?

I have no idea.

This is impossible.

Your world of steel and glass and
sunlight is equally impossible to us.

Is this where you live?

No.

We are nomads.

All of the oceans and waterways are our
home.

They are curious.

That is all.

So do you all live here, together, like
all the species?

There are the fish.

There are the titans.

The dolphin and us.

Huh, so it's like a hierarchy then, like
a class system?

There are degrees of intellect.

Do not assume we think as one.

Oh,

sorry,

sorry. I just... This is a

lot.

Here.

Hold on to me. Come on. Come on.

Keep moving. Keep moving.

Come on.

Hang on. Where are the others?

Have the wolves moved?

It's just you and me.

Is that weird?

I understand.

You're so warm.

And rough.

What do you feel?

Strength.

And beauty.

I don't know why you chose me for any of
this.

The tides have drawn us together.

The undercurrent pulling us closer.

If you calm your mind, you'll feel their
power.

But your thoughts are noisy.

Can you read them?

Human emotions are so loud.

We cannot help.

But listen.

Your heart is racing.

Yeah, I don't want to mess this up.

Billions of people are counting on us.

You have good intentions.

We could make a difference, you and I.

End the conflict between our species.

Before it's too late.

Yeah.

Berkeley!

We thought we'd lost you.

Are you alright?

Yeah. We are assembled.

Oh, my God.

Do not be afraid.

This is how it's helped for you.

Welcome to our domain.

They're down there on their own.

With no support.

Do you think one day we won't need to
keep us a secret anymore?

I don't know.

I'm sick of hiding it.

Pretending.

worrying about being transferred to God
knows where. Alaska?

You find it so easy.

The future of the human race pivots on
what happens tonight. We don't matter.

How can you be thinking about us?

I think about us all the time.

Can't you not be Commander -in -Chief?

Just for a few hours.

I don't know how.

You... Shirley, hi. Any news from the

delegate? No.

All quiet.

So I ran some intel on the people in
that Cobra meeting.

Thanks. I think I found something.

A repeated word in diplomatic
communications.

Just words of severance to be made into
you.

No. It's never appeared before.

Now it's been used 14 times in the last
two days.

Holding messages going back and forth.

Severin. Severin. Severin.

Kate?

I love you.

I love you.

Your war is lost.
