The story takes place in a futuristic city called Robotia which is full of robots that all have jobs and live their lives. One robot, Bbi (Caitlin Mcloughlin), dreams of playing football, but her parents won't let her. Her friends, Alex (Faye Hadley) and his team, invite her to play to fulfill her wish and to show everyone what they are capable of in the upcoming Children's Football Tournament.
Throughout the story, all the characters grow closer together as a team. For example, at the start, they all play while letting Alex play most of the game. When Bbi joins them, it challenges the team to work together more and help each other out. When Bbi gets banned from playing football, the team comes together to fulfill her dream of playing. When they get to the finals of the tournament, they all come together to play their best and it strengthens their friendship.
The animation is well executed; I especially like the close-ups, such as when Bbi is nervous about the finals. Alex comes to comfort her and tells her that whatever happens, the only thing that matters is that they all tried, together as a team. During this scene, the close-ups with Alex and Bbi really stand out. The main character is Bbi, but the whole football team is a lead character. All the voice actors bring out the personality of their characters so well through their voices. You can often hear childish fun through their voices. Their attire is appropriate for robots. The football jerseys and ballet attire for the students in the boarding school stand out. This film takes place somewhere in the future in a city called Robotia. There are flying cars and no humans; the only inhabitants are robots. The background music is most noticeable in the scenes at The Children's Football Tournament where its futuristic suspense helps enhance the event. That was my favorite music. The robots have very human-like expressions. When they gather to get their wish to play in the Children's Football Tournament their faces show their determination and their love of the game of football. My favorite part is my favorite character, Bbi. She kind of reminds me of myself. When she gets really excited, she becomes a chatterbox, and we both have friends who help us fulfill our dreams. For Bbi, it is her football team. For me, it's my two best friends and my friends in choir and theatre.
The film's message is to never give up on your dreams and to help others and yourself to make dreams come true. It also reminds us that "teamwork makes the dream work!
