ROBOT DREAMS is Pablo Berger's Animated Masterpiece Without Dialogue | From Studio 9

Live action and animation director Pablo Berger reflects on the journey to produce his Oscar-nominated, animated feature Robot Dreams. In this exclusive TIFF Studio 9 interview, Berger opens up about adapting Sara Varon's book; concentrating on acting instead of dialogue; and some of his own 2-D animation inspirations.
The hand-drawn film, based on the 2007 graphic novel by Sara Varon, is set in New York City in the 1980s. Paradoxically, the city’s relentless flow of activity can make for rather lonely lives, such as the one the quiet, composed Dog leads. But when Dog orders Robot from a TV sales channel and assembles him, he brings to life a kind, strong, and flexible buddy with a great smile and incredibly expressive eyes. Their instant, honest bond allows them to enjoy an unforgettable summer together to the beat of Earth, Wind & Fire’s funky “September”, only to be involuntarily separated at the beach after a day of underwater antics.
