Two children and one robot take center stage in this timely exploration of how far AI technology can go.
 
JieJie and her little brother DiDi are living on their own in a barren desert while their mother works tirelessly to earn their admission into Oasis City. Their days are filled with weathering sandstorms and scavenging for water, but everything changes when they come across an AI-powered robot lying dormant in an abandoned junkyard.

Filled with equal parts hope and suspense, Oasis tells the story of a potentially not so distant future that you won’t ever forget.
