00:00The action of the film begins in a large modern city, the name of which remains unknown.
00:05A young taxi driver suddenly stops his car in the middle of the road because he unexpectedly
00:10loses his sight.
00:11A passerby offers to help him and takes the driver's seat.
00:15They drive to the taxi driver's home, and the driver describes his condition as if he
00:19sees shadows floating in a fog.
00:22The helper is surprised, saying that blindness is supposed to be black.
00:26When they stop at a crosswalk, the helper informs the driver that they have arrived
00:29at his home.
00:30However, as soon as the driver steps out, the kind helper steps on the gas and drives
00:35away, leaving the helpless man in the middle of the road.
00:37The man asks passersby for help, and one of them escorts him home and helps him get to
00:42his apartment.
00:43The taxi driver's wife is very concerned about her husband's condition.
00:46She quickly finds an ophthalmologist's phone number and takes her husband to an appointment,
00:50shocked by the thief's behavior in robbing a blind man so easily.
00:54The doctor examines the taxi driver, but finds no visual impairments.
00:58He writes down the results of the examination and advises the young man to be admitted to
01:02the hospital for a full checkup.
01:04The couple returns home.
01:06Meanwhile, the doctor continues his practice, examining the next patients, including a child,
01:10a woman in dark glasses, and a one-eyed old man.
01:13Later, he returns home and tells his wife about the strange case.
01:16They spend a quiet evening together, while one of the doctor's patients goes to a pharmacy,
01:20buys medication, and takes a taxi to a hotel because she works as a call girl.
01:25She keeps her dark glasses on, as the doctor instructed, and isn't too surprised when everything
01:29before her eyes turns white.
01:31The frightened client throws her out into the corridor in her negligee, and the woman
01:35asks the hotel staff for help.
01:37Meanwhile, the doctor's wife wakes up earlier than him and prepares morning coffee.
01:41Suddenly, the doctor announces that he can't see anything and assumes that he was infected
01:46by yesterday's patient.
01:47The man has a panic attack, and only when his wife helps him calm down does he contact
01:52his colleagues.
01:53They also begin to record strange cases of sudden blindness, but they still don't understand
01:57what's happening.
01:58The white blindness spreads rapidly, and an ambulance arrives to take the doctor away.
02:03His wife tries to get into the same vehicle, but they refuse to take her until she claims
02:07that she too has suddenly lost her sight.
02:10The couple is taken to a facility repurposed for quarantine, which is immediately declared
02:14by the government.
02:15The doctor and his wife are the first to find themselves in the large room, numbered 1.
02:20Although the husband insists that his wife confess that she can still see and go home,
02:24she refuses.
02:25Soon, more patients arrive in the ward.
02:27Among them are the taxi driver, the thief, the call girl, and the child.
02:31The taxi driver recognizes the thief by his voice, and a fight breaks out, which the doctor
02:36barely manages to stop.
02:37Later, the people start to settle into their new environment.
02:40The doctor's wife tries to help them adapt, guiding them to the toilet and advising them
02:44to count their steps and memorize all the turns and doors.
02:47One day an unfortunate incident occurs when the call girl accidentally scrapes the skin
02:52off the thief's leg with her heel.
02:54The doctor's wife provides first aid since the real doctor can't see anything.
02:58The doctor's wife worries that they might have introduced an infection because they
03:01have no antiseptics.
03:03Her husband asks her to forget about it as they can't change anything.
03:07One day she goes for a walk and hears the guards' warnings that only infected people
03:10are allowed to be here.
03:12At that moment, more people arrive.
03:14These include a police officer, a pharmacist's assistant, a hotel maid, and a financial advisor
03:19who turns out to be the taxi driver's wife.
03:21Upon hearing her familiar voice, he calls out to her, and they find each other with
03:25difficulty.
03:26The newcomers settle in.
03:27The doctor, hearing the guards' voices, asks them to bring medicine as he needs to
03:31help the injured, but they point their guns at him, promising to shoot him and his wife
03:35if they don't return to their ward.
03:37Due to isolation from the outside world and the growing number of patients, living conditions
03:42in the quarantine facility gradually deteriorate.
03:45The call girl takes the child under her wing, who keeps asking for his mother.
03:49Meanwhile, the maid remembers the woman in glasses who infected her, unaware that she
03:53is nearby.
03:54Soon, food becomes scarce.
03:56The only sighted person, the doctor's wife, tries to call emergency numbers, but no one
04:00answers.
04:01The next day, a new group of patients arrives, including the ophthalmologist's assistant.
04:06The doctor's wife tries her best to maintain order.
04:08She comes up with the idea of stretching ropes between the wards so that people can move
04:12around.
04:13The doctor, on the other hand, focuses on the toilets, as the people can't see what's
04:17happening there.
04:18The patients often go outside to escape the smells, but their mood changes drastically.
04:22One day, the taxi driver's wife falls into a depression and stops talking to her husband.
04:27The doctor's wife is concerned about the lack of soap, but is grateful that there is
04:30at least water and forces everyone to take hygiene measures.
04:35One day, a one-eyed old man comes to their ward with a radio.
04:38He shares the news.
04:39In the first 24 hours, there were many infected people.
04:42Helpless doctors were involved in continuous conferences because no one knew what to do,
04:46but then they too started going blind.
04:48Weeks pass and many people are forcibly sent to quarantine.
04:52One day, a bus accident occurs, killing 23 people.
04:55On the same day, two planes collide, causing panic.
04:58There are more and more accidents, and people begin staying home.
05:02By now, almost everyone has gone blind.
05:04After telling his story, the one-eyed man plays music, and while it plays, everyone
05:09silently listens as if it were a greeting from a bright past.
05:13Many cry.
05:14More and more people arrive at the quarantine facility, and soon the guards, unable to maintain
05:18order and not wanting to be near the infected, begin shooting at violators, even unwitting
05:23ones.
05:24The first deaths occur.
05:25The quarantine residents ask for a shovel to bury them.
05:28The doctor's wife goes outside to get it.
05:30She continues pretending to be blind and finds it very difficult to hold back when she realizes
05:35that the guard is simply mocking her.
05:37The woman silently picks up the shovel, and although the guards are very surprised by
05:42this, they attribute it to her quick adaptation.
05:44The doctor urges each ward to bury one of the dead, but others refuse to listen to him.
05:49When it comes to fair food distribution, an armed patient from the third ward declares
05:54himself king and takes control of all the food.
05:57Meanwhile, the thief develops an infection and soon realizes that the doctor's wife can
06:01still see.
06:02It becomes increasingly difficult for her to hide her sight, and she often cries.
06:07One night the thief goes outside and provokes the guard to shoot.
06:10The next day the doctor and a few people from his ward bury the dead.
06:14The man confesses to his wife that it is very difficult for him that she is taking care
06:18of him, but the woman asks him to accept this fact and walks away, taking advantage of the
06:23fact that her husband can't see her.
06:25The next day the king announces new rules.
06:27Now anyone who wants to eat has to pay for it.
06:29He mockingly sings for everyone, demanding that his supporters sing along.
06:34Later a real battle for food breaks out, but fearing the weapons, no one dares to resist.
06:39The king demands valuable items in exchange for food, and he realizes that the doctor's
06:43wife can see.
06:44Her husband tries to rally everyone for resistance, but people don't understand the value of their
06:49jewelry anymore.
06:50After all, they are of no use now, so people take off all the expensive things they have.
06:56The doctor's wife collects them, and her husband exchanges them for food.
07:00He suddenly realizes that one of the king's henchmen is blind from birth, which is why
07:04he feels great controlling the food and valuables.
07:06The doctor tries to shame him, but in the end, their ward receives much less food than
07:11they need.
07:12He feels guilty for what has happened and refuses to eat.
07:15The call girl tries to persuade him to accept the new order, as living after taking someone
07:19else's life is very difficult.
07:21They share an intimate moment, which his wife witnesses.
07:24She confesses to the call girl that she can see and forgives what has happened.
07:29A week passes, and people run out of valuables.
07:32Then the king orders that women be brought to him and his henchmen in exchange for food.
07:36The doctor's wife tries to appeal to the guards, but they say they are already giving everything
07:41they can.
07:42Arguments break out among the people.
07:44Some men call for ignoring the king's demands, but others are willing to share their women.
07:48The doctor is against his wife participating, but he can't insist on his opinion, so some
07:53women, including the call girl and the doctor's wife, volunteer to go and get food for everyone.
07:57The taxi driver tries to stop his wife from doing this, but she leaves.
08:01A total of nine women volunteer.
08:03The doctor's wife leads them to the third ward, lining them up in a chain.
08:07This causes cheers from the king and his henchmen.
08:10An orgy begins.
08:11The doctor's wife ends up with the king, who has remembered her voice for a long time and
08:16now takes revenge for all the insults she has previously thrown at him.
08:20Later the women return, bringing with them one of them who has been killed in the heat
08:23of the moment by the king's henchmen.
08:25The women do their best to clean her up and say their goodbyes.
08:28The next night the king announces that tonight he and his henchmen expect the women from
08:32the second ward.
08:33The blind man from birth comes to ask if those who visited them yesterday have recovered.
08:38The doctor's wife tells him about the death of one of them.
08:40He falls silent and leaves.
08:42The doctor's wife takes scissors and goes to the third ward.
08:45She finds the king busy and kills him, but the blind man from birth recognizes her by
08:50her steps and grabs a gun.
08:52He orders her to be caught, but the women flee.
08:54Before leaving, the doctor's wife promises that for each day without food, one of the
08:58third ward's residents will die, and she won't miss.
09:02The woman tells her husband everything, and he realizes that they are in for a war.
09:06He orders the doors to be barricaded.
09:08After some arguments, the men in his ward suddenly decide to go and simply take the food.
09:12Twelve volunteers gather, led by the doctor's wife, but at that moment one of the rape victims
09:17starts a fire.
09:18The king's henchmen, frightened, begins shooting, and people run in all directions.
09:23The doctor's wife leads the people from her ward into the courtyard.
09:26She calls for the guards, but no one responds.
09:28Then the woman opens the gates and realizes that no one is guarding them.
09:31The infected head into a half-ruined city filled with garbage and corpses.
09:35Everywhere, surviving groups clash over food.
09:38The doctor's wife finds a relatively intact store and leads her people inside.
09:43She orders them to lock up and not let other groups wandering the city inside.
09:47Her husband goes with her, and she tells him that only the blind are around.
09:51Soon they find a looted supermarket.
09:52The woman circles it and finds a descent into a basement filled with food.
09:56She fills entire bags.
09:57But as she is leaving, a crowd that has smelled the food follows her.
10:01The doctor helps her fight them off and drags her out of the raging group.
10:04After moving a little away, he leaves her to go back for a lost jacket.
10:08The woman sits on the steps and sees nearby how dogs are tearing apart the body of a dead person.
10:13She weeps in grief and horror as the rain begins.
10:16The doctor's wife goes to a nearby church where one of the pastors is trying to preach something.
10:21There she notices her husband and goes out to him.
10:23They return to their people, who are washing in the rain, rejoicing in the water.
10:28They are happy that the doctor and his wife have returned and rush to hug them.
10:32Later, everyone rests in the store, and the doctor's wife suggests that they all move to their home.
10:37It is big and comfortable, and everyone can settle down there.
10:40They thank their fate that their leader is a sighted person.
10:43The group sets off.
10:45The doctor's wife talks about what is happening around them, and people describe themselves,
10:50so that their friends can imagine them.
10:52Soon they arrive at the house.
10:53The door is locked, but that doesn't mean no one is inside, so they act cautiously.
10:57The doctor's wife asks them to remove their dirty clothes, as they have enough clean clothes for everyone.
11:02Later, people tidy themselves up, making jokes about their appearance for the first time.
11:07The doctor's wife helps everyone wash thoroughly.
11:09Suddenly, the one-eyed old man confesses that he is happy.
11:12He has found a family, and for the first time, he wants to live with someone, helping them and caring for people.
11:18Later, everyone sits down at the table and raises a toast to the human family.
11:22In the morning, the doctor's wife puts things in order, and suggests holding a meeting to establish rules of conduct,
11:27as there isn't much food left.
11:29And suddenly, the first infected, the taxi driver, announces that he can see everything around him.
11:34His sight has returned as unexpectedly as it had left.
11:38People rush to embrace each other, as this means that the blindness is temporary.
11:42Everyone rejoices, realizing that the disease will soon pass.
11:46They will be able to see again, and this time, people will truly open their eyes.
11:50And the doctor's wife suddenly realizes that her heavy burden has ended, and she has become free.
11:55The film shows people of completely different ages, nationalities, genders, and professions, united by one misfortune.
12:02But how differently they react to the disaster that has befallen them.
12:06One thing remains unchanged, the conclusion that a person must remain human,
12:10and only this can save and show the way to the light, even in total darkness.
