Detroit: Become Human 2018 - A Videogame and Movie
Detroit: Become Human is an adventure game developed by Quantic Dream and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment for the PlayStation 4, released worldwide on 25 May 2018.
The plot revolves around three androids: Kara, who escapes the owner she was serving to explore her newfound sentience and protect a young girl; Connor, whose job it is to hunt down sentient androids; and Markus, who devotes himself to releasing other androids from servitude.
They may survive or perish depending on dialogue choices that shape the story as customised by the player.
Detroit: Become Human was based on Quantic Dream's 2012 tech demo Kara; Valorie Curry returned to reprise the title role.
To research the setting, the developers visited Detroit, Michigan. They built a new engine to complement the game and cast hundreds of actors from Los Angeles, London, and Paris before commencing the process of shooting and animation.
The script of thousands of pages took writer and director David Cage over two years to complete. Philip Sheppard, Nima Fakhrara, and John Paesano served as composers for Kara, Connor, and Markus, respectively.

My Thoughts on "Story of Android" - Detroit: Become Human 2018 (Movie)
Just on a lark; mainly because I needed a break from mathematics and Haskell, I decided to watch some YouTube.
The trailers for Detroit: Become Human 2018 looked interesting, so I decided to check it out.
And I'm so glad I did.
My opinion about the movie? In a word: Brilliant!
Within five minutes, I forgot I was watching a CGI - much less a movie based on a video game!
Fifteen minutes later, I was already intrigued by the setting, engrossed in the plot's beginning, and empathisizing with the main character "Markus".
This movie combined my childhood love for comics with my adult passions for tech and human civilization.
For me, it was a cool presentation of what the "Singularity" (advent of sentient machines) could be.
It also shows the cruelty of Humankind from the Android's point of view.
See this clip about Markus:
I highly recommend this movie for anyone who likes games, technology, action, drama, science, philosophy, and plausible future scenarios.

About the Author
Believing that school was too boring, he dropped out of High School early; only to earn an AA, BS and MBA in less than 4 years much later in life – while working full-time as a Navy/Marine Corps Medic.
In spite of a fear of heights and deep water, he performed high altitude, free-fall parachute jumps and hazardous diving ops in deep, open ocean water.
After 24 years of active duty, he retired in Asia.
Since then, he's been a full-time, single papa and actively pursuing his varied passions (Writing, Disruptive Technology, Computer Science and Cryptocurrency - plus more hobbies too boring or bizarre for most folk).
He lives on an island paradise with his teenage daughter, longtime girlfriend and three dogs.
