Plot - In the far off future, a little waste-gathering robot coincidentally sets out on a space adventure and falls in love that will at last decide the destiny of humanity.
In a distant, however not all that improbable, future where humanity has surrendered earth since it has ended up secured with waste from items sold by the capable multi-national Buy N Large partnership, WALL-E, a junk gathering robot has been left to clean up the chaos. Mesmerized with knickknacks of Earth’s history and show tunes, WALL-E is alone from everyone else on Earth aside from a jaunty pet cockroach. One day, EVE, a smooth (and hazardous) surveillance robot, is sent to Earth to discover evidence that life is once again sustainable. WALL E becomes hopelessly enamored with EVE. WALL E salvages EVE from a tidy tempest and demonstrates her a living plant he found among the rubble. Consistent with her "mandate", EVE takes the plant and naturally enters a deactivated state aside from a flickering green signal. WALL E, doesn’t comprehend what has happened to his new companion, at the same time, consistent with his affection, he protects her from wind, rain, and lightning, even as she is unresponsive.
