synopsis
Is BER-66 a human or a robot? His controllers, known as 'the Mechanism,' tell him he is a living machine, programmed to gather information on the inhabitants of the strange underground world he finds himself in. However, as he penetrates its tunnels and locked rooms, encountering mysterious doppelgangers and a petrified city, he comes ever closer to the truth of his existence. Robot is a haunting philosophical enquiry into the nature of our reality and our place in the universe.
