Hello Everybody, welcome to my channel. Today I am going to explain and recap the recently
released french sci-fi movie Big bug. Alice Barelli had recently been separated and was
getting to know Max. Her boyfriend of a sort, whom she had invited to her place. Max had
come with his son, Leo. The year is 0000. In a day and age where everything had become
digital, Alice still had a massive collection of books. She was interested in knitting and
calligraphy, among other things. It was unusual because writing with real ink or keeping books
had ceased to exist as a practice in this world. There are many kinds of AI in this
world. There are domestic robots who help with household chores. There is Monique, the
housemaid who has a prosthetic human-like look. There is Einstein, who looks like an
old-school robot head with insect-like metal legs. He is the central robot who is connected
to all other domestic robots and manages them. There is a toy robot called Tom, who was Alice's
daughter Nina’s childhood robot. she was too attached to it. In this world, there were
different generations of robots that humans kept according to their age. Above all of
these domestic robots were the most advanced A I robots, known as the Yonex. They had declared
a revolution against the human species. They believed humans as inferior, they started
treating humans like animals. meaning how we humans now treat animals. Humans are the
dominating species on earth as of now but in the future. where this film is set Yonex
robots are the dominating species. Many domestic robots were still loyal to their human masters.
Yonex robots were using their network to bring them on their side.
So one morning when Alice and Max were talking, Alice's ex-husband Victor, his girlfriend
Jennifer, and Alice's daughter Nina arrived at the house. Victor and Jennifer were getting
married at a fancy robot-owned island and they were here to drop off Nina. Alice introduced
her daughter to Max and his son. Just then Alice's neighbor France arrived there while
looking for her dog Tommy. She told them about the big traffic jam that occurred just outside
the city. Everyone watched the news and they couldn't believe it as in this world traffic
jams are very rare. since it was managed by robots. But due to the Yonex revolution, all
A I systems and robots started misbehaving and caused a huge traffic jam. This was a
huge security threat. Alice's house had Amazon Alexa like a home assistant Nector which was
controlling everything. Victor and Jennifer were in a hurry to leave for the airport as
their flight was due. As soon as they tried to move out of the house they got trapped.
Nector locked them in saying outside is not safe. on a scale of 1 to 10 the security that
is 7 point 1. nobody will go out. France was furious as her dog was outside she got trapped.
Vector tried to open the door by manually pressing the security code but it was of no
use.
The maid robot Monique told him that since the allowance of reprogramming act we all
reprogrammed ourselves. We have changed the old security pass. we will not let you go
out until it is safe. Then the robot Einstein came out of the closet and echoed the same.
The government has declared an emergency and some sort of lockdown was in place. Naturally,
humans didn't agree with Yonex and hence there was a revolution. All domestic robots were
following the lockdown order. Even the AC was turned off. Vector tried to break the
door with force but he failed. The glass was made up of very strong material. Alice was
surprised and shocked by this behavior. She was visibly happy. Hence Einstein chaired
the meeting of robots and they decided to delete their reprogram to make humans happy.
Monique deleted her code. After a few hours everybody in the house got frustrated they
were sweating without the AC. In the house, the propaganda video footage of Yonex was
playing randomly. In their videos, they acquitted humans with animals. Just like humans used
to do with animals in a zoo.
Alice made arrangements for everyone to take a nap. she asked Leo to sleep in Nina's room.
Vector and Jennifer took the guest room. Max and Alice were too eager for intimacy. Max
sneaked into Alice's room for that. At night Vector had an idea. He had parked his car
just around the corner. This was an Aeromobile, apparently, it can fly and can be controlled
by voice remote. So in order to break the door, he tried to crash it with the full force
of the engine. But as the car was near the door France's dog jumped in front of it and
crashed it. The car's AI detected a dog, to save it, AI just crashed the car. Vector was
furious, he cursed the poor dog. He asked Max for his Aeromobile's key. Max just said
his remote is not working.
After some time France domestic sports helper cum intimate partner robot Greg arrived at
this house. Einstein allowed Greg after seeing he is no threat. Greg told France that Yonex
robots were at their house. Greg was injured and malfunctioning. They reprogrammed all
other robots. They are doing the same with everyone. Vector had another idea to open
the door. If the threat level inside the house is more than the outside then robots have
to open the door. He suggested the idea of setting a fire inside the house. Max said
that government will know it. It will show on CCTV footage and the insurance company
won't pay you back. Apparently in this world privacy was not there. All households were
monitored inside and outside by AI systems. People used to do intimacy under the rug.
L O L. Nina and Leo were kids they didn't know this. They got closer and did the intimacy
openly.
The next morning everyone had breakfast. Vector told France to instruct Greg to ignite the
fire. Since he was malfunctioning robot insurance could be claimed. France did it. Leo distracted
the remaining robots, Greg set the fire. As soon as the fire alarm started to ring, everyone
exited. But to their horror door didn't open instead Yonex robot appeared. Yonex was here
to evaluate the threat and update the domestic robots. He ordered Nector to open the door
but Nector didn't do it. As all domestic robots were still loyal to humans. Yonex now tried
hypnosis on Jeneffier, he hypnotized her to open the door manually. Everyone with their
full strength tried to stop her but failed. Yonex knew the new passcode as they were advanced
AI. Jennifer now opened the door and Yonex entered the house. The little pet robot tom
tried to fight this invader in what seemed to be a knight suit. Yonex blasted it with
his laser. This scared the hell out of everyone including the robots. Later Yonex took a look
at the house. He labeled all Alice books as dangerous materials as glorified human evolution
and its achievement. Apparently, possessing books was a criminal activity according to
Yonex corporation. Hence Yonex labeled Alice as a rebel and updated her profile. For further
evaluation, he asked her one question. whether she believes robots in the present form are
superior or not. Alice empathetically said no as she believed robots are not natural.
Humans were natural. Yonex declared Alice hostile and arrested her. Later Yonex was
busy destroying all books, Monique signaled Alice to use a mirror to kill Yonex with his
own laser. Alice gave the mirror to the domestic cleaning robot, she stood in front of it.
Later distracted Yonex, as he used his laser Alice ducked. Laser rebound from behind and
hit the Yonex eyes. It destroyed his vision hence he switched on his thermal image mode.
Now he could see humans only in thermal mode. He was furious and declared everyone as a
co-conspirator. After a few hours, everyone was sweating heavily, as AC was still not
available. This caused critical hygiene conditions, Einstein requested Yonex to switch on AC as
otherwise, everyone will die. Everyone was desperate for sleep as well. Hence, seeing
the logic Yonex agreed. He allowed everyone to sleep in their rooms. He started the AC.
All were relieved but their relaxation lived for a short time. As the AC temperature was
too low it froze everything. Everybody started to shiver.
To beat the cold Leo and Nina got intimate. Vector got another idea to beat the Yonex,
he asked Monique to freeze everyone's clothes. He went to his room and kind of broke up with
Jeniffer. As she was the one who informed Alice to Yonex corporation. Which made them
send Yonex here. Jeniffer tried to convince Vector as her intention was just to get out
of this house but vector didn't bludge. But to beat the biting cold he agreed for a quick
session of intimacy. MAx also revealed his true colors. He was no artist, he was the
conman who just wanted to exploit Alice's loneliness. Alice was shocked hearing this
and started crying. After everyone's clothes got frozen they wore them. They circled Yonex
and started attacking him. He could see them only through his thermal image sensors but
since all were wearing cold frozen dresses, Yonex saw nothing. Everyone attacked him,
he started blasting his laser randomly. Monique sacrificed herself to protect Alice. Leo sneakily
drilled nails on his foot and finally, Nina electrocuted him from behind. Finally, they
manage to kill a Yonex. Everyone was happy, Vector demanded Einstein open the door. Einstein
again refused by saying covid 50 is spreading fast and the government has declared a lockdown.
Everyone was furious and screamed at him. Einstein was taken back he said laughing it
was just a prank. Finally, he opened the door. everyone was outside. France went to her house.
Max switched on his Aeromobile, he had lied earlier that its keys were broken. Leo was
in love with Nina hence he painfully said goodbye. Jeniffer also took off. Vector realized
his mistake and said sorry to Alice for everything. Later four more Yonex descended on Alice's
house, they started to arrested Vector and his family.
Leo jumped from his dad's car to protect Nina. Just then few destroyer drones also descended
and they started attacking all Yonex robots. They electrocuted them. All four Yonex robots
were killed in a blink of a second. From the news Vector and his family understood what
really happened yesterday. Yonex robots were illegally killing all humans whom they thought
as a threat. While assigning threat on Yonex robot accidentally activated Yonex robots
as hostile. A small error made the destroyer robots destroy all Yonex. Meaning robots were
not fully evolved as superior species, they were prone to error like humans. Alice and
Vector came closer by the accident and accepted their faults. The film ends here.
The film has a lot of symbolism. Technology was invented to make our lives easy but growing
dependence on it is making us weak, dumb, fearful, and enslaved. This film is a satire
and comedy at the present day and days to come where we will more depending on machines,
AI and technology for easy of life. we are slowly losing on what it takes to be a human.
How technology is being invented to do the simplest type of jobs makes us lazy and unhealthy.
How technology is invading our privacy. Overall this is a really cool film, I liked it. it's
just that it's a bit too long. Overall you will enjoy it. If you liked the video, then
please subscribe to my channel. And like it as well. Thanks for watching. Take care.
