The Little Robot. How to Learn to Be Human

What does it mean to be human?

The Little Robot, as a child of a robot is called, sets out to learn from humans. He ends up with a shy boy named Valya Lomonosikov, who is not sure himself that he can be called a real human.

The Little Robot experiences all of Valya's failures together with him and asks him a thousand questions. The answers to these questions often turn out to be ambiguous not only for the Little Robot, but also for Valya, who learns a lot alongside his new friend.
