Robot Will Protect You

(English)

Estonia | 10 | Sci-Fi | 2018 | Short Film (Animation) | English

In 2062, the cyberspace offers total emotional satisfaction online. To maintain the population, the government encourages people to procreate by offering the incentive of a free robot to help with the children. One rainy night, a nine-year-old girl Tina and her guardian robot, SAM-53, set off on a quest that asks: if cyberspace has made romantic love obsolete, do we still need love in the real world?
