A Japanese professor has made a perfect copy of himself as a robot. He is obsessed with finding out if he can implement human presence in a robot. How do you program the human soul? In Germany an elderly woman is falling in love with Paro – her robot baby seal. But other people at the nursing home do not share her warm emotions. Will her love for the robot last? Mechanical Love is about the people who live with robots as a natural part of their everyday lives. –danishdocumentary.com
