Friday Movie Matinee: "The Wild Robot"

Darien Library presents our monthly program: Friday Movie Matinee!

Darien Library presents: Monday Night at the Movies!

This week we are showing “The Wild Robot."

“The epic adventure follows the journey of a robot—ROZZUM unit 7134, “Roz” for short — that is shipwrecked on an uninhabited island and must learn to adapt to the harsh surroundings, gradually building relationships with the animals on the island and becoming the adoptive parent of an orphaned gosling. A powerful story about the discovery of self, a thrilling examination of the bridge between technology and nature and a moving exploration of what it means to be alive and connected to all living things.” – DreamWorks
