To monitor the progress, the program's director, played by Sandra Huller (TONI ERDMANN, 2016) periodically checks in. She never imagined that her pursuit of happiness would be dependent on advanced robotics.
Despite Alma's hope for companionship and recognition of her own biological clock, she seems to catch herself anytime she begins to feel a bit of joy. Their initial interactions are quite awkward as Alma is skeptical and Tom is programmed to constantly and quickly learn and evolve based on Alma's reactions. Alma has agreed to the three-week trial, and her robot is Tom (played well by Dan Stevens, BEAUTY AND THE BEAST, 2017). Advanced robots have been developed to become the "perfect" mate, and are programmed specifically for one person. She's drawn into an extraordinary experiment that blends high-tech with sociology. Alma is a serious and determined woman, and one who bears the scars of a recent breakup. Maren Eggert stars as Alma, an Anthropologist who has dedicated years of her life to leading a team documenting the earliest human use of poetry. Is it possible to advance inter-personal relations to the point of perfection? Would that even be desirable or preferable to the messiness that's gone on since the beginning of time? It's actually the film's premise that impresses most. Writer-director Maria Schrader and co-writer Jan Schomburg have adapted the short story from Emma Braslavsky and turn the lens to relationships and love. This is often with an eye towards more fuel-efficient cars, smaller and more powerful computers, and more effective medical treatments. The thing about humans is that we are always looking towards the future to see how we can make things easier, better, or more exciting.
