Real Humans
Created by Lars Lundström
On SVT1
A philosophical sci-fi drama that uses humanoid robots to interrogate consciousness, personhood, and what it means to be human, grounded in intimate family dynamics across two parallel storylines.
Set in a parallel universe, Real Humans imagines a world where robots have become so human that they're barely distinguishable from real humans and follows the resulting emotional effects on two families as well as the trials of a group of robots who have attained free will and want their freedom from human ownership.
