Nominated for an Academy Award for Best Animated Film!Join us as one of the most highly acclaimed animated films of the year finally comes to Buffalo.

CRITIC’S PICK "A silent wonder that says everything about love."
- New York Times
“BREATHTAKING. UNIQUELY MIRACULOUS, EFFORTLESSLY HEARTBREAKING AND LIFE-AFFIRMING. Expands on its source material with cinematic cunning, from a nod to Buster Keaton’s most famous stunt to a Busby Berkeley-style musical number…the details with which a bygone era of New York is rendered are astonishing, from the fashion of the populace to the ambiance of the First Avenue subway station, to the fact that Dog and Robot rent THE WIZARD OF OZ from Kim’s Video.”
– Rob Humanick, Slant
“WHIMSICAL AND GENTLY EXISTENTIAL. A sweetly wistful little movie that, like a good pop song, expresses something profound without wasting a word.”
– Jake Coyle, Associated Press
“Grade: A. A delightfully bittersweet animated wonder that embodies the medium’s most purely cinematic qualities. With its soulful tin heart, ROBOT DREAMS moves us to appreciate the fortune of having a precious pal.”
– Carlos Aguilar, Indiewire
“Stirring and delicate…[Berger] subverts the common expectations for robot movies through savvy inventiveness, winking references, and an unfettered heart.This is a vibrant, rich film whose clean line and bright hues pop across a New York canvas, managing to succinctly capture the visual and sonic verve of the city… its radical sweetness arises from a wellspring of empathy.”
– Robert Daniels, The Playlist
