Spanish animation cinema has been standing out among the world’s top for years, but in 2024 it has reached its peak thanks to Robot Dreams, a film that has won the highest award at the European Film Awards and has been nominated for the Oscars. Pablo Berger’s film has made history, and just a few months after its release, it can already be seen online through streaming.
Robot Dreams is now available to watch on Movistar Plus, the Spanish streaming platform. With the basic subscription to the VOD service, we can access and watch the movie in its entirety, without any rental or purchase involved. This is something that the audience is taking full advantage of to enjoy a film that, despite its fame, did not have a large number of viewers in theaters.
A melancholic film about friendship, love, and letting go
Despite its appearance, Robot Dreams is not a children’s movie. It is a film for all audiences that is deeply sad and melancholic, but touches your heart in a special way. Based on a comic book by Sara Varon published in 2007, the film has a unique narrative and an unbeatable look. Without a doubt, it is one of the best of the year.
The movie tells the story of Dog, a lonely dog who lives in the city of Manhattan. One day, deeply bored and alone, he decides to build a robot to keep him company. Little by little, their friendship grows until they become inseparable, all while dancing and enjoying 1980s New York. However, one summer night, Dog is forced to leave his robot on the beach, causing them to be separated indefinitely.
