Two people alone on an island have built something that works. Then a man with a mustache and a pig-powered raft arrives and breaks it. The film knows exactly what it's mourning: the moment before the world gets complicated, before progress arrives uninvited to a place that never asked for it. What starts as pastoral contentment becomes an elegy for simplicity itself, and the robot is just the prop that proves it. A 1960 parable remade in color, finally letting you see how green the island was before the machine showed up.

A man and a woman travel by raft to a remote desert island, bringing chickens and a dog along. At first the place feels like paradise: they farm, fish and keep the same daily routine, grilling sanma outdoors. Their calm ends when a mustachioed scientist arrives on a raft pulled by a mistreated pig. He builds a robot that starts turning the island industrial. The couple resent the newcomer and his machines, yet choose to tolerate them. This 1967 movie is a redrawn color remake of a 1960 film of the same name, mixing adventure with science fiction.
