Robots of Brixton: the full version is released [full video here]

We posted up a feature on the fabulous sci-fi short film ‘The Robots Of Brixton’ back in January, and it’s great to see that Kibwe Tavares has now posted up the finished piece – and it’s been worth the wait!

Here’s how the film is described:

Brixton has degenerated into a disregarded area inhabited by London’s new robot workforce – robots built and designed to carry out all of the tasks which humans are no longer inclined to do. The mechanical population of Brixton has rocketed, resulting in unplanned, cheap and quick additions to the skyline.

The film follows the trials and tribulations of young robots surviving at the sharp end of inner city life, living the predictable existence of a populous hemmed in by poverty, disillusionment and mass unemployment. When the Police invade the one space which the robots can call their own, the fierce and strained relationship between the two sides explodes into an outbreak of violence echoing that of 1981.
