A World of Many Languages
We have been discussing the importance of the English language in the world today. In the film you are about to watch this is one of the themes; you will see how difficult communication becomes when there is no common language. Let’s practice English and have fun in class! Take down some notes about the film by completing the following questionnaire.

nationality: ___Krakozhia__________________
personality / characteristics: He is a very hardworking person. He is romantic and
very brave. He never quit of his objectives. He is a patriot.
Setting – where the story take place: _____John F. Kennedy International Airport_____

Viktor’s country _______________________
Plot (story) – Why is he travelling? What happens? While he was going to the U.S., a revolution started
in Krakozhia. Due to the civil war, the United States don’t recognizes Krakozhia as a sovereign nation
and denies Viktor's entrance to the U.S. territory. He is unable to leave the airport, but he is also unable
to return to Krakozhia so Viktor had to live in the terminal.
Situations of difficulty in communication: The airport boss asked Viktor to interpret a
desperate Russian man with undocumented drugs for his sick father. Viktor claims it is "medicine
for goat," barring the drug from confiscation and resolving the crisis. In the film, Viktor had lots
of situations where he had problems in communication and some of them are very funny.
How does he try to survive? How does he fit in? How does he communicate? Viktor
collected money for food by retrieving vacant baggage trolleys for the 25-cent reward from the machine,
but the boss prevented him.
Comment / Observation: I loved this film because it’s very funny and creative.

3. The film you are about to watch refers to the “Three Laws of Robotics” in Isaac Asimov’s book.
1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey any orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the
First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second
Law.
Do you think they protect humans? Justify.
I disagree with the three laws because I think that robots should have enough intelligence to choose
what's right.
In the film, the robot helps the cop instead of helping the child and, for me, that's wrong. In my opinion
robots should follow the principles according to the theories of Kant. That is, all human behavior is
based on maxims - reason and moral action. I agree with this!
In this case, maxims and laws aren't the same. Maxims are ideas that we believe in and fight for, like
"Don't kill" or "Don't steal". Laws are a bit different. A maxim can't be broken and laws can be broken -
like in the film.

Plot (story) – Differences between man and robot:
_Robot cant think ( except sonny) and human aren’t so strong._______________________
__________________________________________________________________________
Why did the robots revolt? Because VIKI wanted to protect the creator so she tell to other robots
to do the revolution.
C. Post-reading / Viewing Tasks
Comment.
VIKI’s attitude – “The Created must Protect the Creator”
I disagree because, if that’s was true, the babies should protect their moms too. I think that the creator
must protect the created.
