Eleven-year-old Tibor has only one friend: his house robot, T.I.M. When his father replaces the out-of-date robot, Tibor saves it from destruction. He sets out in search of the only one who can repair T.I.M.: the mythic robot maker Hector Sammler. During the adventurous quest through an unknown world however, T.I.M. slowly falls apart. It remains to be seen if they will ever find Hector, provided he exists in the first place.
