Pablo Berger's Oscar-nominated animated daydream is an episodic tale of friendship deferred
Eclectic Spanish filmmaker Pablo Berger has made silent movies before, but never one quite like Robot Dreams. A New York tourism advert for anyone who thinks WALL-E sold out to Big Talkie after breaking its opening vow of silence, Robot Dreams communicates the aches, pains, and joys of a friendship deferred without a word of dialogue.
Dog is pragmatic and careful, aware of the consequences of social infractions, and pays the price for them. Robot is more open-minded and ready to greet each new adventure with a welcome smile and wave. But in their separation, they find connecting with those around them difficult. The alchemy of animation is that Berger’s team creates something more real than reality through illustration.
