Synopsis World War Z

Former  unemployee Gerry Lane (Brad Pitt), his wife Karin (Mireille Enos) and their two daughters wake and enjoy a family breakfast. Gerry tells the youngest daughter he quit his job to spend more time with the family. On the TV is some news about strife and talk of martial law. Later, they sit in heavy Philadelphia traffic when the city is attacked by a horde of zombies. Fast-moving "super zombies" who attack people, biting them and the bitten getting turned. The Lanes are in a car crash during the panic stampede and Gerry notices it takes 12 seconds for a bitten person to change. As the chaos spreads, the Lanes escape from the city in a stolen RV trailer and take refuge in an apartment complex in Newark. Deputy Secretary-General Thierry Umutoni (Fana Mokoena) - an old friend of Gerry's - calls and tells the family that he is sending a helicopter to rescue them. The helicopter takes the Lanes to a U.S. Navy vessel off the coast of New York City, where a team of scientists and military personnel are analyzing the scope of the worldwide outbreak.

A virologist, Dr. Andrew Fassbach (Elyes Gabel), argues that the plague is a virus, whose origin must be found in order for a vaccine to be developed. Because of his expertise as a former UN investigator, Gerry is tasked with helping Fassbach find the outbreak's source. Gerry reluctantly agrees to help, on given the word that his family will be safe, and is sent to Camp Humphreys, a military base in South Korea.

Moments after arriving at the base, Gerry's team is attacked by zombies. Fassbach is killed after accidently shooting himself. After being rescued by the base's surviving personnel, Gerry learns that the zombies are attracted to noise. Gunter Haffner (David Morse), a former CIA operative, tells Gerry to go to Jerusalem, where the Israeli Mossad had established a safe zone just before the outbreak was officially acknowledged, implying Israel might have had prior knowledge of what was to come. As Gerry prepares to leave, the infected attack and kill several of the soldiers. Only Gerry and the C130 pilot manage to escape.

In Jerusalem, Gerry meets Mossad leader Jurgen Warmbrunn (Ludi Boeken), who explains that the Mossad had months earlier intercepted communications from an Army General in India, who stated that Indian troops were fighting the "rakshasa", or "dead spirits". With this knowledge, the country quarantined itself. While Gerry talks with Jurgen, zombies begin to climb the protective wall the Israelis built, forming a massive pile that eventually succeeds in entering the city. While fleeing, Gerry notices that an old man and an emaciated boy are ignored by the zombies. While escaping, Segen (Daniella Kertesz), Gerry's escort, is bitten by a zombie. Gerry quickly amputates her hand to stop the spread of the infection. Gerry and Segen eventually manage to board a Belarus Airways airliner after Gerry's pilot panics and flies away.

Contacting Thierry, Gerry asks for the nearest WHO or CDC type lab, they are diverted to a WHO research facility in Cardiff, Wales. While in the air, a stowaway zombie is released and attacks the passengers. The plane crashes after Gerry detonates a grenade to kill the zombies. Segen and Gerry proceed as the only apparent survivors of the crash, Gerry has been impaled by a metal part. Out of contact, the US Navy assumes he is dead and deports his family to Nova Scotia.

After arriving at the facility, Gerry awakes strapped to a gurney but bandaged. He reveals a theory to the wary scientists that since the old man and the sickly boy were ignored: the infected do not bite people who are seriously injured or already terminally ill, since they would be unsuitable as hosts for viral reproduction. He volunteers to inject himself with a terminal but curable pathogen to see if his idea works. However, the wing of the building in which the pathogens are stored was overrun by zombies after a doctor accidentally infected himself. Gerry decides to go get a pathogen regardless, while Segen and one of the WHO doctors follow him for backup. They fight their way through the zombies, and Gerry finally gets to the pathogen vault.

After getting cornered inside the vault by a lone zombie, Gerry's only course of action is to perform an impromptu test of his theory. He injects himself and opens the vault door - the zombie ignores him. After he makes it back to the safe part of the facility, everyone rejoices at his theory's success, and the doctors cure him of the pathogen. Gerry returns to his family, in a safe zone in Freeport, Nova Scotia.

A "vaccine" derived from deadly pathogens is developed that can act as camouflage for the troops battling the infected. Human offensives begin against the zombies, and hope is restored. Gerry comments, "This isn't the end. Not even close."

Dahlan Iskan (born August 17, 1951 in Magetan, East Java), in his book Heart of Change is an interesting story about the date, Dahlan said that the date is written solely by Mr. Dahlan because at that time there was no record of when his parents were born and also do not remember the date of his birth. And why Mr. Dahlan vote on August 17, due to coincide with the date of independence of Indonesia and so easy to remember.

Small Dahlan raised the rural environment of scarcity view, but very strong religious atmosphere. There is an interesting story I read in his book Heart of Change that describes how all his shortcomings as a child. Small Dahlan told there have only one pair of shorts and a shirt, but still has one glove!.
And the joke-joke pack fresh Dahlan told the greatness of his holster owned. Here he was told that the glove could be anything. Starting an instrument of worship, seeking sustenance, entertainment, fashion, health until it becomes a tool to frighten.

If small Dahlan again washing clothes, gloves can placed the upper body. Then again wash the pants, gloves can be made subordinate. Then again looking for the remains of harvest of soybean fields of the rich, it can be used as glove bags. If stomach again hungry and no food at home, a sarong can be fastened tightly dipinggang he became a reliable booster stomach. If you want to pray he became an important object unutk the Lord. If more cold, he became a blanket. If the gloves were still able to rip stitches. If the place was torn stitches again, still could be patched. If any torn tambalanya, gloves were not necessarily going to retire. Could still torn up again, large parts can be used as a pillow and a small part can be used as baby diapers. There are lessons we can learn from his story, that whatever our condition, good enough, enough or more we must remain grateful, patient, and should enjoy it all with what it is.
