About

On the run in the year 1987, Bumblebee finds refuge in a junkyard in a small Californian beach town. Charlie, on the cusp of turning 18 and trying to find her place in the world, discovers Bumblebee, battle-scarred and broken. When Charlie revives him, she quickly learns this is no ordinary yellow VW bug.
A soulful, expressive performance from a damaged yellow Volkswagen transforms a standard robot brawl into a tender coming-of-age story. This 1980s nostalgia trip finds its heart in the unexpected bond between a lonely teenager and her mechanical protector.
