Curmudgeonly old Frank lives by himself. His routine involves daily visits to his local library, where he has a twinkle in his eye for the librarian. His grown children are concerned about their father’s well-being and buy him a caretaker robot. Initially resistant to the idea, Frank soon appreciates the benefits of robotic support – like nutritious meals and a clean house – and eventually begins to treat his robot like a true companion. With his robot’s assistance, Frank’s passion for his old, unlawful profession is reignited, for better or worse.
Robot & Frank is a 2012 science fiction comedy-crime film about a curmudgeonly widower who forms an unlikely friendship with a caretaker robot assigned to him by his concerned children. When Frank's old passion for heist work resurfaces with his robot's assistance, the two embark on a clever crime spree that tests the boundaries of their bond.
