Robert (short scifi movie: in full).

In short scifi movie Robert by Jonathan Irwin, we get a glimpse into the future of our technological friends: one where the ROB 9000, waits for his family.

Focusing on the robot’s self-awareness, loneliness and dog-like love of his owners, the film evokes sympathy for this humble hunk of metal as a humble domestic servant awaits the return of his loved ones.

Well, now the Amazon Astro has arrived, perhaps we’re talking the near future?
