Freedom Planet (film)/Transcript

This is the transcript of the 2022 film Freedom Planet.

Prologue: Avalice's Backstory
(The 20th Century Studios, Tencent Pictures, and Pearl Studio logos appear. Then, we fade to a shot of space.)

Narrator: Hello, everyone. I'm pretty sure you're all asking yourself: What is this movie about? Well, let's see.

(The camera transitions to a planet known as Avalice.)

Narrator: This is the planet of Avalice, home to many kinds of species. How is this planet a thing, you may ask? Well, let's look over its history.

(Transition to a storybook-like sequence.)

Narrator: A long time ago, Avalice was like many other planets: Small, filled with life, and quiet. That is until a spaceship crashed into the surface. A spaceship full of dragons.

(Show a scene where dragons appear from the ship.)

Narrator: When it was found that Avalice had some inhabitants, the dragons used their technology to help the Avalicians survive and prosper. This, along with the Kingdom Stone, merged with each other to form a new one. One that was stronger than ever. The three kingdoms, Shang Tu, Shang Mu, and Shuigang were established with their own power. The Dragons also established their own location in Pangu Lagoon, allowing their influence to pass into one another's generation.

(The screen transitioned back to the shot.)

Narrator: Anyways, let's see what our heroes are up to, shall we?

(Fade to black for a few seconds.)

Part 1: The Runaway Train
(Fade in to an overhead shot of a field.)

Narrator: The wonderful sights of Avalice is beautiful, don't you think? From the buzzing bees to the whistling birds, nothing can go wrong in-

(A passenger steam train passes by very quickly.)

Narrator: Wait. What's going on?

(The train was moving at a very fast speed, with passengers inside it!)

Passengers: Help!

(A motorcycle passed by too, which was chasing the train. Driving the motorcycle was Carol Tea, a green wildcat, 12 years of age. Carol took out a walkie-talkie.)

Carol Tea: It's no use, Milla! I can't get any closer to the train!

(Cut to Milla Basset, an ivory-white Hush Basset, 10 years of age.)

Milla Basset: We have to stop it somehow! The train has no engineer on it and is headed straight for danger!

(The train continued steaming down the line at a very fast speed. Carol was losing the train.)

Carol Tea: The train is going too fast! My motorcycle can't reach it in time! Where's Lilac?!

(Then, out of the bushes, came a lavender half-water dragon. It was Sash Lilac, 15 years of age.)

Sash Lilac: I'm on my way, you guys!

Carol Tea: Yeah! You got this, Lilac!

(Since she is a dragon, Lilac managed to reach the train.)

Passenger #1: Who is that?

(Lilac winked at them.)

Passenger #2: She winked at us!

(Lilac jumped onto the steam engine. She looked around for the brakes.)

Carol Tea: Lilac! You have to stop the train now! It's approaching the broken bridge!

Sash Lilac: What?!

(She looked out.)

Sash Lilac: Oh, no!

(The camera quickly moved towards the broken bridge, which led down to the cliffs and the river below. Lilac popped her head back into the cab and looked for the brakes.)

Saah Lilac: Brakes! Where's the brakes?

(She frantically looked around desperately for the brakes.)

Carol Tea: Hurry!

(Then, Lilac found the brakes.)

Sash Lilac: A-ha!

(She applied the brakes. Milla was looking over from the watch tower.)

Milla Basset: Come on, come on, come on...

(The train was still moving pretty quickly.)

Carol Tea: Lilac! You gotta get outta there! It's not gonna stop in time!

Sash Lilac: Not now, Carol!

Carol Tea: Come on! Ah!

(Carol stopped as she almost fell in the cliffs. Lilac pulled the brakes as hard as she can. The train had bashed through the danger barrier.)

Milla Basset: Oh, no! I can't dare to look!

(Milla covered her eyes. And then, with a screech and a scratch, the train stopped just in time over the edge. The passengers cheered and whooped for joy.)

Sash Lilac: Phew. That was close.
