City of ember mayor movie#
The movie ends as they tie a message to a rock and drop it from far above it into the city − where it is found by Loris. Lina, Doon, and Poppy eventually reach the Earth's surface, where they witness a sunrise for the first time in their lives. Meanwhile, the Mayor turns against his accomplice, Looper, and locks himself in his vault, only to be devoured by a gigantic star-nosed mole. Now fugitives from the mayor's police, Lina and Doon, accompanied by Lina's little sister, Poppy, use the instructions and assistance from Sul to flee the city via a subterranean river. After Lina attempts to report this, the mayor captures her and tries to steal the metal box, but she escapes during a city-wide blackout. Later, they also discover that Mayor Cole has been hoarding canned food in a secret vault for his own benefit while the people go hungry. Gradually, they learn that it contains a set of instructions and directions for an exit from the city. At home, Lina (a descendant of the seventh mayor) finds the opened box and enlists Doon's help to decipher its contents. Shortly afterwards, the two secretly exchange assignments. Doon Harrow (Harry Treadaway), the son of inventor Loris Harrow ( Tim Robbins), is assigned "Messenger", while his classmate Lina Mayfleet (Saoirse Ronan) is assigned "Pipeworks Laborer" and apprenticed to elderly technician Sul (Martin Landau).
