Honda to Premiere 'Living with Robots' Documentary Film at Sundance Film Festival Together with Live Demonstrations of ASIMO Humanoid Robot

"Living With Robots," an all-new short documentary film from Honda, will debut at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival, Jan. 22, followed by a live 10-minute demonstration of the world's most advanced humanoid robot, ASIMO (Advanced Step in Innovative Mobility).

The sixth film release in Honda's popular Dream the Impossible Documentary Series, "Living With Robots" was directed by award-winning filmmaker, Joe Berlinger, (Brother's Keeper, Crude, Paradise Lost, Metallica: Some Kind of Monster). The film ponders life with robots such as ASIMO, along with perspectives from science-fiction screenwriters, academics, philosophers, engineers and other thinkers. Designed to someday assist people in their homes, ASIMO is the culmination of more than two decades of research and development by Honda engineers. Attendees have the unique opportunity to experience "Living With Robots" and ASIMO in person for three days only, Fri., Jan. 22, through Sun., Jan. 24, with six shows daily at 11 a.m., 12 p.m., 1 p.m., 3 p.m., 4 p.m. and 5 p.m. Demonstrations will be held at The Village at the Yard, 1251 Kearns Blvd., Park City, Utah.

And hot off its world debut Jan. 11 at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit, Sundance Film Festival attendees also will get a sneak-peek at the all-new 2011 Honda CR-Z sport hybrid coupe, months before it goes on sale in late-summer 2010. The CR-Z is designed to balance style and fun with efficiency and fuel economy. In addition, attendees can view the zero-emissions hydrogen-powered Honda FCX Clarity fuel cell electric vehicle – the first and only production fuel cell electric vehicle in the hands of individual customers today.

A supporter of Sundance Institute and Presenting Sponsor of the Sundance Film Festival, Honda is the Official vehicle of the 2010 Festival, bringing nearly 50 low-emissions vehicles, including the all-new Accord Crosstour, to transport filmmakers, talent and other special guests to Festival events. In addition, Honda is providing two super quiet and efficient EU6500iSA generators and two easy-to-use HS928WA snowblowers for use by Festival staff during the event.
