“The Bobot” Ukrainian Science Fiction Film Release

The new Ukrainian sci-fi film “The Bobot” tells the story of an electric transformer box, which has come to life. It helps a group of young heroes save the world from a global catastrophe.

The movie’s target audience is children and teenagers. However, the creators believe that the story will be interesting for people of all ages. In addition to human values, the film raises the issue of environmental protection. Namely – the impact of technological progress on the world.

“Science fiction always involves some adventures or unusual fantastic events. We have a walking electric transformer box, the issue of energy, which is presented in several forms – as electricity and as mental human energy,” the co-producer of the movie “The Bobot” Dmytro Karpenko said.

It took two years to complete the movie. The cast features both professional and amateur actors. Half of the film is based on computer graphics.

One viewer, Aliona, came to a charity screening with her son Volodymyr, who has autism. The boy is a huge Harry Potter fan, and his mother hopes that he will love “The Bobot” just as much.

“After he saw Harry Potter for the first time, he asked me to buy him two books. As a result, we’ve read not two but four books over the holidays. We are expecting to get something new, some emotions and knowledge from this movie,” she said.

The creators are proud that the entire movie was made by a Ukrainian team. It provides another example of what the Ukrainian film industry is capable of producing.
