Robots Experience Mental Breakdowns in Mother's New Short Film for TED

TED launches original films, each commissioned to help bring TED’s theme in 2018, The Age of Amazement, to life.

The films have been produced by leading creative film makers from around the world and premiered on the TED main conference stage in Vancouver 10th-14th April, before going to broader distribution.

Building on the nature of TED, this film takes a different view about the future possibilities of The Age of Amazement.

Intended to set the mood for each section of TED content, the films are designed to be both entertaining and thought provoking.

After TED, the films are aimed to drive traffic to TED.com and TED’s social profiles.
