An aging thief with a fading memory finds his love for larceny
reinvigorated after receiving a companion robot from his concerned son
in this tender sci-fi comedy drama starring Academy Award nominee Frank
Langella. Frank (Langella) is a former criminal living out his twilight
years in quiet solitude. Though frequent trips to the local library keep
Frank physically active and mentally stimulated, there's little
question that his memory isn't what it used to be, and lately his grown
children have begun to express concern over the fact that their father
lives alone. Bestowed a caretaker robot capable of offering engaging
interaction and tending to basic household chores, Frank at first
resents his new android sidekick. But in time Frank lets his guard down,
and begins to actually enjoy the companionship of his new domestic
partner. Later, when the future of the local library is threatened,
Frank falls back into his old ways, and discovers that his robot helper
also doubles as a competent criminal sidekick.
