When I first saw a trailer for the 2023 film Robot Dreams, based on the graphic novel by Sara Varon, I was intrigued enough by the animation and premise to read the source material as I waited for a US release date. Upon reading the graphic novel, which I enjoyed, I became more interested in seeing how the film would adapt the book, including what changes there might be in translation. When a release date finally came, it would be part of a very limited theatrical run, and so we made sure to get tickets for the earliest possible date we could due to the timeframe of screenings in our area. After finally getting to see it, I found it to be a faithful adaptation that was well worth the wait.
