about
the film

Robot anthropologists Olivia and Gus Henderson are on a mission to prove that delivery robots are worthy of species status and protections. Aspiring documentarian Sam Bourdain is on a mission to prove that his work is worthy of the family name. But when one researcher starts listening to their heart instead of their head, the research—and the documentary itself—begins to unravel. A mockumentary about hubris, humanity, and a scientific endeavor forced to reckon with the most volatile data point of all: love.
