W.I.S.O.R. (2001)

In a lab in the Lower East Side, a team of scientists and engineers are developing W.I.S.O.R., a futuristic robot designed to repair New York City's ancient underground steam pipes. These pipes, a hidden network stretching a hundred miles beneath Manhattan, provide heat and hot water for countless buildings. Honeybee Robotics, the creators of W.I.S.O.R., are facing mounting pressure as the project falls behind schedule and exceeds its budget. As they grapple with technical challenges, personal conflicts, and philosophical questions, they inadvertently open a door to a surprising and unprecedented future in this strange tale set in the city's hidden depths.
