Multi-award-winning director Pablo Berger offers a unique cinematic experience with Mon Ami Robot(Robot Dream). This adaptation of the comic strip by American author-illustrator Sara Varon will be presented as a special children's screening at the Cannes Film Festival 2023.
In a world populated by animals, where loneliness can be overcome by the creation of robots, we meet Dog, a New York dog in search of friendship. He befriends Robot, and together they share moments of complicity, playing video games and strolling through Central Park. Their friendship quickly becomes unbreakable. However, during a trip to the beach, Robot finds himself rusty and immobilized in the sand, forcing Dog to return to his solitary life.
Over the seasons, Dog tries to fill the emotional void left by the loss of his friend through brief friendships, but no bond can replace Robot's presence. For his part, Robot finds solace in dreaming and recalling happy times spent with Dog. Despite the obstacles, hope persists for the two friends, who aspire to meet up again one day.
Mon Ami Robot is an animated film imbued with poetry and musicality. It marks Pablo Berger's first step into this genre, having already won awards for his work, notably with"Blancanieves". The story explores the themes of friendship, its importance and fragility, and promises to offer viewers, young and old, a touching emotional experience.
With careful animation and a captivating story,"Robot Dreams" transports viewers to an enchanting universe where animals and robots live side by side, and friendship transcends barriers. Pablo Berger's direction, combined with Sara Varon's sensitive adaptation of the work, promises to touch hearts and inspire young and old alike.
Mon Ami Robot was presented during a special screening at the Cannes 2023 Film Festival, where young and old alike were able to immerse themselves in this poignant story about friendship and the dreams that guide us.
