The Wild Robot / An Ròbot Allaidh Dir: Chris Sanders, 2024, 1hr 42min, EnglishFrom DreamWorks Animation comes a new adaptation of a literary sensation, Peter Brown's beloved, award-winning, #1 New York Times bestseller, The Wild Robot. The epic adventure follows the journey of a robot--ROZZUM unit 7134, "Roz" for short--that is shipwrecked on an uninhabited island and must learn to adapt to the harsh surroundings, gradually building relationships with the animals on the island and becoming the adoptive parent of an orphaned gosling. Thig tionndadh ùr de togarrach litreachais à DreamWorks Animation An Ròbot Allaidh - leabhar gràdhach, cliùiteach aig Peter Brown, àireamh 1 san New  York Times a tha air a liostadh gu soirbheachail. Tha an dàn-thuras mòr a’ leantainn an turas aig ròbot - aonad ROZZUM 7134, “Roz” mar far-ainm – a tha air a long-bhriseadh air eilean gun duine a’ fuireach. Feumaidh e ionnsachadh a dh’atharraicheas e an àrainneachd cruaidh còmhla ri na beathaichean a bhios a’ fuireach air an eilean agus an uairsin a bhith na uchd-phàrant do dh’isean geòidh dìlleachdan.  What’s Up with the Sky (Què li passa al cel?)2023, Spain, animation, 10min, no dialogueThe sun rises happily over the horizon and is welcomed by the most beautifullandscape. The humans also wake up and do what they always do: cut downtrees, construct aimlessly and pollute without shame. Their ideas and actions, usually very disrespectful to the planet, are putting in jeopardy the wholeenvironment. What they do not realize, is that whatever they do, it will affectthem sooner or later. However the cosmos is not that patient. Tha a’ghrian ag èiridh gu sona thar na fàire agus tha fàilte air cur leis an t-sealladh-tìre asbòidhche. Tha na daoine a’dùsgadh agus iad a’dèanamh na bhios an-còmhnaidh: a’geàrradhchraobhan, a’togail gun amas agus a’truailleadh gun nàire am measg na rudan eile. Thèid ambeachdan agus gnìomhan, mar is tric a’dèanamh dìmeas air a’planaid, a chur an àrrainneachdslan ann an cunnart. Rud nach eil iad a’tuigsinn,’s e gu bi dè a nì iad, bidh buaidh orra, luathno mall. Chan eil an cosmas cho foidhidinneach ged-tà.
