This remarkable documentary tells the story of Robert Shields, who began performing as a teenage “robot” in front of the Hollywood Wax Museum before rising to national fame on a top-rated CBS variety show alongside his wife and performance partner Lorene Yarnell.

Along the way, Robert unknowingly became a major inspiration for the artists who would later define hip-hop dance styles like popping and locking.

The film features astonishing, never-before-seen archival footage of Robert’s performances—films over 40 years old that were recently rediscovered in a Southern California garage and preserved for audiences to experience today.

Funny, joyful, and filled with wonder, Robert Shields: My Life as a Robot introduces a one-of-a-kind performer whose creativity proves that anything is possible.
