Dog lives in Manhattan and he’s tired of being alone. One day he decides to build himself a robot companion. Their friendship blossoms and they become inseparable – roller-dancing and gorging on fast food – all to the rhythm of a 1980s New York soundtrack. One summer night, Dog, with great sadness, is forced to abandon Robot at the beach. Will they ever meet again?

ROBOT DREAMS is the first animated feature by award-winning Spanish director Pablo Berger (BLANCANIEVES, ABRACADABRA). It’s as much a love letter to the Big Apple’s past as it is a delightfully sweet story about friendship, its importance, and its fragility.
