A collection of four short films that explore the potential impact of future artificial technology on human relationships, Robot Stories earns the Crimson Arts stamp of approval for combining its conversation-sparking material with a remarkably profound understanding of human emotion.

The aging state-owned enterprise, which a decade ago made 130-mm artillery shells, now houses assembly lines that stamp out a boxy four-door hatchback called the Flyer. It built just 17,000 vehicles last year; many of the underpowered and unattractive cars were bought by local taxi companies on the order of provincial officials looking for a captive market. But even that didn't dismay factory managers trying to cash...
