Adam-2

What does it mean to be human?

The robot Adam Two has been locked in the basement of a lost building for over two hundred years - until he emerges into a world ruined by a civil war between humans and advanced intelligence. Hunted by both sides, Adam discovers that he holds the key to the war, and the power to end it - to destroy one side and save the other. But first, Adam must decide who - and what - he really is.
