From Stefan Voigt, David Shelton, and Stefan Weinberg of Mainz, Germany, comes this happy little 3-minute movie about two robots who live inside a television. When the monitor glass breaks, they are introduced to the world outside.

As I watched, I kept thinking of Plato's Republic, wherein Socrates explained that we are all living as in a cave, where all we can see are projections of light and shadows on one wall. And Plato never even had a TV.
