A television transcript of Stanisław Lem’s sci-fi play. Man will not control machines, but machines will one day control man if humanity is not reasonable. The assistants will bring a new robot to a well-known writer, which he did not order. It’s paid, so he’ll keep it. The robot proves to be the perfect servant. He only has one weakness: in the absence of his master, he “slugs” from the sockets of electricity and from the excess of energy he tries to create the perfect man. (3Kino Fest)
