ROBOTOMY

Convinced he's a robot, a man desperately visits a doctor for answers he has trouble believing.

Written, Directed, Edited & Produced by Michael Pizzano

Directors Statement: Robotomy does what the science fiction does best: take problem of today and shows where the dangerous trend may lead. As a dark comedy, it allows audiences to face a hard truth through humor, encouraging one to rethink what they "know" without feeling attacked. The ending is both tragic and poetic justice under the guise of comedy, while also feeling all too relatable. My goal in making this film was to spur conversations that need to happen between people of all backgrounds.
