Ash is an A.I. humanoid robot that cares for an elderly man. When he passes away peacefully, his family relieves Ash of her hospice and care duties.
Left to her own devices, Ash wanders outside for a walk, roaming until she stops at a park. When she meets a boy with special needs and his mother, they spend time together, giving Ash another window into what it means to be human, celebrate their differences and embrace what makes them different.
This thoughtful and warmhearted sci-fi short is an introspective, searching snapshot in an A.I. robot's evolution, as she discovers other dimensions of what it means to be human beyond her set directive.
