A beautiful comedy and, for good measure, a heist picture. Curmudgeonly old Frank lives by himself. His routine calls for daily visits to his library. His children are concerned about the wellbeing of their father and buy him a care taker robot. Initially resistant to the idea, Frank enjoys the benefits of autonomous service -- such as meals and a house -- and sooner or later starts to treat his robotlike a companion. With his robot's assist, Frank's passion for his old, profession that is unlawful is reignited, for worse or better.
