We Dream of Robots
Executive Producer
In small towns of Uruguay, a small revolution is changing the lives of an increasingly large group of young people: the unstoppable expansion of robotics, a phenomenon that awakens passions and levels of commitment that were previously only imaginable in football in this country. The film explores the ways in which the current rural generation investigates their place in the world, the future that awaits them and how to overcome prejudices to achieve it. As they conquer the world of robotics, with incredible determination and humility, they teach adults what the future is all about, how to achieve it, and why it is worth it.
