The Truth About Killer Robots

When a robot kills a human, who takes the blame? An eerie, eye-opening work of science nonfiction, THE TRUTH ABOUT KILLER ROBOTS considers several automation cases, from a factory in Germany to a bomb-carrying police droid in Dallas, raising questions of accountability and morality. Exploring the provocative viewpoints of engineers, journalists and philosophers, the film goes beyond sensational deaths to examine more subtle but pervasive ways that robots affect humanity. Directed by Maxim Pozdorovkin (HBO's "Pussy Riot: A Punk Prayer"), this thought-provoking documentary debuts MONDAY, NOV. 26 (10:00-11:25 p.m. ET/PT), exclusively on HBO. The film will also be available on HBO On Demand, HBO NOW, HBO GO and partners' streaming platforms.
