While adding the Vimeo app to Plex, I discovered this online released only independent web series called condition: human.  It’s been offer up for viewing online via six 15 minutes episodes.  I caught the first one and instantly was hooked.  It is also quite amazing at what people can do nowadays without serious budget. Here is the official description:

“In the near future, man has begun to address the economic and environmental issues plaguing the early 21st century. Rapid technological advancements have changed life dramatically, especially the creation of advanced humanoid robots who have begun to play an integral part in everyday life. Takumi Kenji, the reclusive CEO of Kenji electronics, and father of all things A.I. has announced the first ever ‘companion’ bots, a model of humanoid who’s interactive capabilities are remarkably natural, As robots continue to evolve their place amongst us must evolve as well, and as it does society carries the responsibility of answering the moral questions that come.”

Everything about this just appeals to me! cute actor? checked! futuristic? checked? high tech? checked! robot? checked! sense of loneliness and blue? checked! sleek cool fashion? checked! Japanese culture through out the film? checked!  I have no idea how the story is gonna go, but I intended to find out when the second episode arrived April 15!!   Check out the trailer below and if you like it go to their Vimeo page for the series:
