hello everybody Welcome to my channel today I am
going to explain and recap the most anticipated sequel horror film of the Year Bird Box
Barcelona even though it's a sequel to the 2018 Bird Box film but the events here
run parallel to it with a slight time Gap as the name suggests events are happening in
the city of Barcelona where at first we see the protagonist's dad by the name of Sebastian
who is enjoying skating with his daughter Anna in a closed Indoor Stadium like in America
and Rus
sia mysterious supernatural creatures have invaded the city and anybody who happens
to look at them immediately kills themselves soon a group of blind survivors attacked Sebastian
and steals his supplies Sebastian starts to bleed and wanted to fight back but Anna stops him
the city was in chaos as food and water were in short supply people used to roam around for
food with blindfold suspecting others as threats Sebastian soon encounters one such group of
survivors who were headed for their
secret hideout he approached them with an offer of providing
the location of generators for food and shelter generators were precious items here as they
can provide electricity at night interestingly Sebastian lies to these people about being
alone even though Anna was with him in hiding but he left her there and walked with these guys
these people reach an abandoned Bus Station Camp which was double locked with two doors inside
a camp Dr Liliana stitches Sebastian's wound and makes him fee
l safe at night another guy who
himself removed his eyes narrates his Horror Story according to him there are people out
in the city who can see these creatures when they first saw them they didn't kill
themselves instead they became their followers it seemed they had their own share of mental
issues and when they saw those creatures it triggered something in them they called themselves
Sears and are now roaming the city with open eyes like the guy Gary and the rest in the last
film Sears
forcefully opened the eyes of his friend which got her killed his survival
Instinct forced him to stab his eyes with the knife lying there on the table Sebastian
here doesn't seem surprised hearing this in the middle of the night we see him
waking up and picking up a bunch of keys the next morning while everyone was asleep on
the bus he locked himself in the driver's cabin he was constantly trying different keys to
start the bus to take it out in the sunlight clearly he lied and his intenti
ons were hideous
just in time Liliana woke up and saw this in horror she tried stopping Sebastian but it was
in vain as the bus started moving everyone woke up they banged on the glass door and broke
it open they tried stopping Sebastian but it was late he accelerated the bus and crashed it
into the open the guy who brought Sebastian to the camp saw the creatures and like others
he killed himself by slitting his throat but for Sebastian it all seemed like he liberated
that guy he saw his s
oul leaving his body he was thinking that he is doing God's job
these creatures are angels sent from above when Sebastian forced open Dr liliana's
eyes she heard the voices of her beloved she felt at ease and happily died another
guy exploded the bus Which killed many we now see Anna besides Sebastian who affirms to
him that they all are saved she calls Sebastian a Shepherd who was guiding souls to their
destination she assures him that if he continues this job then soon they all will be to
gether
meaning your Anna was not real she was just a hallucination in Sebastian's mind and he knew his
family is dead here we were shown a nine month earlier flashback where Sebastian is an engineer
for a German wind power generation company soon the creatures invade the city and everyone
starts killing themselves government issues the warning to people to stay indoors as Sebastian
rushes to his daughter's convent school to pick her up here chaos was everywhere with people
jumping from abo
ve in front of trains and whatnot Sebastian picks Anne up from school while coming
out he encounters father estaban who seemed odd he believed all these creatures were Angels
who descended to Earth to liberate people it seemed clear from his way of talking
that he was depressed on the job his faith made him delusional and he lost
his sense of logic in the face of calamity he was suicidal all along Sebastian
was deeply religious but not blindly faithful he covered Anna's eyes and gave
her t
he necklace of the fiery angel Seraph when these two reached home Sebastian's wife
Laura was waiting for them to leave the city but she gets killed while crossing the road
next we see Sebastian in a church where he confesses to lying earlier for liberating those
people hear the image of the Angel Seraph on the ceiling of the church is shown moving to
symbolize it has the approval of a higher power while Scouting For the next victim Sebastian
came across another guy who could see them he had
the marking of an eye on his forehead
implying some seers forcefully opened his eyes to him these creatures appeared in the form
of aliens as he believed they traveled many light years in a big ship he was fighting their
influence but it was in vain he too killed himself Sebastian next encounters another group of food
Searchers headed by Claire as he tried sneakily attacking her two dogs jumped on him with their
eyes closed apparently like birds dogs too were sensitive to these creatures t
hey could sense
their presence early two guys Rafa and Octavio were their handlers like earlier Sebastian used
the trick of the generator to lure these people and Rafa was dead against taking Sebastian
and but kind-hearted clear insisted on helping in their Hideout we see an old couple Roberto
and Isabelle with a German child Sophia once inside Sebastian confesses to lying about the
generator earlier he claims he was scared alone and needed help of course all this is another
lie to blend i
n as Sebastian could speak German he translates Sophia's Journey she and her
mom were tourists when The Invasion occurred her mom saved her for days and then they
heard an emergency broadcast on the radio apparently there was a safe hideout on Mount
julick with all sides sealed the only way to enter was through cableways this Hideout made sense to
all as they collectively decided to head there in the morning at night when everyone is deeply
asleep Sebastian makes a cut in the dog's collar t
he next morning on the road the creatures
attacked these people with tempting voices clarius her dead brother's Voice who was
clinically depressed Sophia heard her mom's voice dogs were barking in Rage which caused
the tear in their collar Rafa and Octavio ran behind them to fetch them Rafa heard his
dog's voice in pain out of love he opened his black fold to sea but it turned out to be a
trick Rafa saw the creatures and kills himself soon his dog too loses its blindfold and gets
possessed
later it bites Roberto Octavio somehow took everyone to a nearby apartment everyone was
shocked at Rafa's death but Claire was confused as to how could these creatures manipulate them
with their memory Octavio had a theory like these creatures might behave as Quantum particles
until someone sees them they can be in any form once one observes them then they take the
shape of the deepest emotion of the Observer emotions can be fear grief pain Faith Etc for
some they may appear as aliens or f
or others they may appear as angels Octavio had a
master's degree in physics from Mexico here we were shown another flashback where
Sebastian and Anna were hiding in an apartment father Esteban from the church was alive and
ironically he was the leader of Sears he was forcefully opening people's eyes like Jerry in
the last film with the pretext of doing God's job in the present State Child Sophia was crying
like hell from all this to calm her down Sebastian gave her Anna's necklace he start
ed
seeing Anna and Sophia Claire understood these creatures manipulation she shares her story
of grief with Sebastian as to how she lost herself when her brother died our grief
led her to the point of self-destruction she warns that these creatures are
taking advantage of our emotions she offers help to Sebastian to manage his
grief but he was not ready for it yet but all this has seated a seed of doubt in him Roberto's
infection was getting worse he needed antibiotics while searching for
it Octavio enters a room whose
window was made open by Sebastian upon seeing the creatures Octavio stabs himself but this time
Sebastian doesn't see the soul leaving his body this shatters his belief what he believed was an
absolute truth turned out to be fake he quickly stopped Claire from entering here while the
entity Anna was asking him to remove her blindfold Claire applied the antibiotics to Roberto's arm
and these guys once again starts their journey toward mount jewick while going t
here Sebastian
observes a series of corpses hanging from the wall it was the job of Sears soon one of them started
chasing them on wheels while running away Roberto and Isabel were left behind they accepted
their fate by seeing each other one last time Sebastian Claire and Sophia hid themselves in a
nearby house here Claire finally saw Sebastian's semi-transparent glasses she was shocked and
Horrors Rafa was right all along Claire rushed to the roof with Sophia to find a way as Anna
was or
dering Sebastian to take their blinds off while in blindfold Claire falls from the top
onto a construction platform and gets knocked out Sebastian upon reaching the roof was
bombarded with Anna's order but deep down now he knew what he did was wrong
he hugs Sophia as a mark of confession in a flashback we see Sebastian give away his
location while celebrating Anna's birthday estaban made Anna open her eyes which led to her
jumping from the rooftop this incident triggered intense grief in Se
bastian he too wanted to jump
and commit suicide knowing now there is nothing left to live for but when estaban opened his
eyes he saw the creatures in Angel seraphis form the creatures tricked him by exploiting his faith
he was brainwashed by Anna's hallucination he convinced himself that he could join Anna and his
wife up in heaven once he paid his price for it at this stage finally Sebastian overcomes his
grief and decides to redeem himself by helping Claire and Sophia he explains everyt
hing to
clear in these three drive to the montjuic at the entrance of the tower he blocks the
way with his car and later decides to stay put to fight the army of estaban Sears who were
following them Claire starts climbing the stair at the top the gondolas were not working as they were
operated at the other end to attract the attention she starts ringing the bell at the bottom father
esta bomb arrives to fight with Sebastian as he was fully delusional Sebastian tells him
that he is not doi
ng God's job but creatures they are No Angels Anna now appears amongst
the Raging flame yet Sebastian was not tricked he attacks her with a rod which in reality pierces
estaban he too stabs him back and both kill each other the creatures upon hearing the bell sound
climb the towers and again started tormenting Claire was determined to save Sophia as by
this time gondolas were operational she makes a perfect jump with Sophia on the other side it
was a safe haven with ample food and protectio
n scientists and army soldiers there
took Sophia and Claire for testing they were looking for specific genetic
stains which were immune to these creatures all seers were either mentally ill depressed or
had some form of clinical stress which made them see these creatures and became their followers
the scientists had captured a Seer along with the creature and they were testing his modified
genes on rats but they were unsuccessful as off now from the last film we know that there
is no cure
for the next four years at least this film is not as terrifying as the
last one but has an interesting take first of all IT addresses the issue of faith
never lose your common sense and logic while practicing faith father Esteban was delusional
in his belief that killing people was God's plan his blindfolded faith in his mind made him
depressed and vulnerable as Sebastian overcame his grief everyone who suffers from mental
illness can overcome it it's just a matter of time as for the creatu
res nothing new is revealed
their origin accepts a theory of quantum particles I guess what Octavio said makes sense
these creatures prey on weakness they show the most uncomfortable and painful
memories to the ordinary mind over and over again when the mind can't take it
anymore it chooses self-destruction for this to happen these creatures must have the
ability to scan the amazing brain in real time and extract data this is not an easy thing to do as
the human brain can have a vast amoun
t of storage overall this is an interesting
spin-off hope you like this video Please Subscribe like and

nice recap
first one was better 2nd one took to long to kind of explain itself
I waited 5 years for a sequel the wait was worth it I loved this movie it’s just like I thought it would be and just wanna say that the Sebastian actor really looks like Che Guevara.
