Alongsiding in The Wild Robot

It’s through a reflection that we are introduced to The Wild Robot’s unlikely hero, the Rozzum Unit 7134. We see otters exploring shipwrecked packaging on a remote island, then this close-up shot zooms out to reveal that we are watching this scene on the shiny surface of the robot’s eye.
