Robot Critic
Updated: 17 October 2009
Synopsis
Two female robots go to see a puppet play for reviewing. They are good friends but work for competing online magazines. At the afterparty the cast tries to make a good impression, so that they’d influence the review. But the old robot has her drive full and is reluctant to all new ideas, as she’s afraid of dying from information overload, she puts everything in black and white. The young one is full of exhuberance and is curios about all things, and in the same time is happy to share all info with the old one. Which is very reluctant and starts panicking when discussions turn into debates and adhoc brainstorming between the artists. So the review of the play becomes the review of the afterparty. The director tries to influence the critic’s opinions at a glass of champagne. The young robot gets so excited by all these creative people around, that she goes all over the old one, bombarding her with questions. The old one gets paranoid, tries to close all inputs, but finally colapses. A hacker resuscitates her by deleting everything. The old robot wakes up courios about the world.
