“Beat” is a story elaborated from your “Heart”. Viewers can experience the work with their hearts in their hands. Viewers encounter a rusted robot, absolutely static. He doesn’t have a “heart” to move. Viewers can grant him a new heart by putting theirs on the robot. He then stands up and starts to move, expressing joy to live out all his strength. However, when he meets with new robots, he doesn’t know how to communicate properly. It is a story that you can realize the power of the heart and the importance of emotional connection with others.
