Barney and his bot Ron discover what real friendship means in a world of social media. Ages 8+ This screening is presented in partnership with the Coastline Children's Film Festival.
Ron's Gone Wrong tells the story of the wonderful walking, talking, digitally connected bot that sweeps the world, becoming every kid's new best friend. But when a 13-year-old boy ends up with one that doesn't work, his attempts to teach it become a hilarious, heart-warming exploration of what real friendship means in a world of algorithms and social media. The film stresses the importance of real-life friendships, of accepting others who aren't like you, and of family-wide compassion, empathy, and teamwork. Rated PG.
