STOCKHOLM, March 19, 2010 - Today, Spike Jonze's highly anticipated short film, I'm Here, is globally
released on www.imheremovie.com. This 30-minute robot love story was
premiered at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival and thereafter screened at the
Berlinale. Now it is made available to viewers around the world, through a
striking online cinema experience. I'm Here is a creative collaboration with
ABSOLUT VODKA, acknowledging the brand's position as a pioneering and
culture-shaping brand.

I'm Here is a love story about two robots living in contemporary Los
Angeles
. The sad-eyed robot librarian Sheldon (Andrew Garfield) leads a
lonely and methodical life, until he one day meets Francesca, a creative and
free-spirited female robot (played by Sienna Guillory). Robot romance
develops and the story is just as beautiful as it is unpredictable.
