This Oscar nominated animated beauty adapted from the stunning book by Peter Brown is a must-see on the big screen!
In a distant future, a shipment of service robots is lost in a storm and only one survives on a remote island. When ‘Roz’ the robot awakes, she tries to navigate the natural world and learn to communicate with the animals around her – with limited success. But this all changes when she discovers an orphaned gosling who imprints on her – and she must learn to be a mother, protector and friend.
With an all-star voice cast, a soaring score and heart-melting visuals – this utterly lovely, emotional story explores nature, nurture and new technology’s challenges as well as its possibilities.
Age suggestion: +6
