Dr. Alma Felser is a famous couples therapist and one of the last people who still believes that love exists only between real humans. She rejects the comfort of hubot love. When her long-term relationship fails, she secretly orders herself one of these androids, naturally designed to be the ideal partner she always promotes in her articles. At first Alma is intoxicated, but soon she realizes that Tom is the partner she wants, but not the one she needs.
"I'M YOUR MAN is not about a woman, but about Alma as a human being with all-too-human struggles - an anti-heroine betrayed by her own ideals. What is human is often revealed in paradoxical situations, especially in moments of dehumanization, such as when a human and a robot enter into a romantic relationship, as in my story. This is where the individual reaches their limits." (Emma Braslavsky)
