David, an artificial kid which is the first to have real feelings, especially a never-ending love for his "mother", Monica. Monica is the woman who adopted him as a substitute for her real son, who remains in cryo-stasis, stricken by an incurable disease. David is living happily with Monica and her husband, but when their real son returns home after a cure is discovered, his life changes dramatically.

Can't re-watch it again
I was 13-14 when I watched this movie. It's a long movie if I recall it correctly. I was so moved by it's theme, so I watched it all. I had strong feelings of sadness and sympathy towards little robot David that wanted to be a real child and to have a mom to love him. And that little bear ... I cried during some scenes. I don't ...
World Science Federation - Greatest Mysteries of Gravity | Brian Greene & Kip Thorne
Nobel laureate Kip Thorne joins Brian Greene to trace a story that runs from the trenches of World War I to the rise of gravitational-wave astronomy—a journey that eventually carried black holes to Hollywood in Interstellar through Thorne’s work with Christopher Nolan.
He revisits the improbable path from Einstein’s equations to the moment LIGO—an experiment he helped imagine and that contributed to his Nobel Prize—captured the sound of two black holes colliding more than a billion light-years away. Along the way, he explores puzzles that stymied generations: the nature of horizons and singularities, the mathematical insights of Schwarzschild and Penrose, and the profound divide between what an outside observer sees and what a falling observer experiences.
The conversation also turns to the human side of deep...
