WHAT IT’S ABOUT

When a crew of deactivated robots comes back online in an abandoned kitchen, they decide to make their own way doing what they know: making food—the tastiest hand-pulled noodles around—for the humans of San Francisco, who are recovering from a devastating war.

But when their business starts causing a stir, a targeted wave of one-star reviews threatens to boil over into a crisis. To keep their doors open, they’ll have to call on their customers, their community, and each other—and find a way to survive and thrive in a world that wasn’t built for them.

This idea is so cursed in so many ways but I low-key want to run with it

“Time can also be a place…Everything depends upon where you are standing, on where you look or what you hear. The measure of it is found in consciousness itself.”

— Frank Herbert, God Emperor of Dune

“Time is said to be irreversible. And this is true enough in the sense that ‘you can’t bring back the past,’ as they say. But what exactly is this ‘past?’ Is it what has passed? And what does ‘passed’ mean for a person when for each of us the past is the bearer of all this is constant in the reality of the present, of each current moment? In a certain sense the past is far more real, or at any rate more stable, more resilient than the present. The present slips and vanishes like sand between the fingers, acquiring material weight only in its recollection. […] Time cannot vanish without trace for it is a subjective, spiritual category; and the time we have lived settles in our soul as an experience placed within time.”

— Andrei Tarkovsky, from “Imprinted Time,” Sculpting in Time, trans. Kitty Hunter-Blair (University of Texas Press, 1987)
