Robot Dreams movie storyline. In a 1980s New York populated by animals, a lonely dog orders a companion robot. But a day at the beach ends with disaster. It may come as a surprise to find that one of the most achingly beautiful stories of love and loss that you’ll see this — or any — year involves a dog, a robot, and a bit of rust.
DOG lives in Manhattan and he’s tired of being alone. One day he decides to build himself a robot, a companion. Their friendship blossoms, until they become inseparable, to the rhythm of 80’s NYC. One summer night, DOG, with great sadness, is forced to abandon ROBOT at the beach. Will they ever meet again?
Robot Dreams is a film based on the enchanting 2007 graphic novel by Sara Varon, given new life for the big screen in glorious 2D animation by Pablo Berger. Like its source, it’s told wordlessly but is full of incident, imagination and, above all, emotion.
