Baltic Cinema: Robot Dreams
Front Room | Wednesday 20 August, 11:00
Dog lives in Manhattan and he's tired of being alone. One day he decides to build himself a robot, a companion. Their friendship blossoms, until they become inseparable, to the rhythm of 80's NYC. One summer night, Dog, with great sadness, is forced to abandon Robot at the beach. Will they ever meet again?
‘One of the finest animations of recent years’ — Wendy Ide, The Observer

Baltic Cinema
Baltic Cinema is a new year-round cinema programme at Baltic, lighting up our Level 1 Cinema with the best new and archive films. Bringing otherwise rarely-screened work to the North East, Baltic Cinema also expands our exhibitions, offering a chance to explore further some of the themes they raise.
Baltic Cinema has five strands:
Currents presents new work from across the world
Sources expands on our exhibitions
Selected shows films selected by our artists and partners
Quayside Kino is a monthly screening for families and children
News From Home offers films on and from the North East, for the people who live here
All regular screenings take place in our Level 1 Cinema. In addition, you can catch free drop-in films in Front Room every week.
Baltic Cinema is supported by Film Hub North with National Lottery funding on behalf of
the BFI Film Audience Network.
Please note we cannot offer refunds on this event.
Donate to keep Baltic free
