In a short film work that is simultaneously humorous and deeply thought-provoking, i-ROBOT Poetry adapted from teh prose poems of Jason Christie, is an animated BookShort drawn with amazing empathy by multi-talented artist Lisa Mann. Her original characterizations afford a layered insight into the lives of the robots in Christie’s collection of prose poems, woven into a storyline that speaks to Jason's delight in holding a mirror to our human habits through his inspired robot-world.

From the humorous to the heartfelt, Christie and Mann together deliver a unique social commentary through the eyes of robots around us. You may never look at your blow-dryer, toaster or our automated world in the same way again.
