Little Delivery Robot Lost in a Rainy Neon City: Sci-Fi AI Video Prompt

Create a cinematic, photorealistic sci-fi short, 28 seconds, 16:9, following a small delivery robot through a rainy neon city at night on its way to deliver a meal. Moody and beautiful like a high-budget sci-fi film, but warm-hearted. No dialogue.

CHARACTER A (the robot): a knee-high six-wheeled delivery robot with a rounded white body, a soft orange light strip around the lid, two round blue LED 'eyes' on a small front screen that blink and change shape to show emotion, a little orange flag on a thin antenna, and rain beading on its shell. Same robot throughout.
CHARACTER B (the customer): an elderly man with silver hair and a cardigan over a checked shirt, living alone in a small apartment.

SETTING: a dense futuristic city at night in steady rain: wet streets reflecting pink, cyan and amber neon signs (signs show only shapes and symbols, no readable words), steaming food stalls, hover-buses passing overhead, crowds with transparent umbrellas, puddles and puddle-reflections everywhere; then a quiet narrow side street and the warm doorway of an old apartment building.

CINEMATOGRAPHY: low-angle tracking shots at robot height, 24mm and 50mm lenses, anamorphic lens flares, heavy rain backlit by neon, deep teal and magenta palette with warm amber accents, shallow depth of field, cinematic film grain, 24 fps.

[00:00-00:04] DEPARTURE — The robot's lid closes on a steaming paper food bag; its eyes become two happy curves; it rolls out into the rain.
[00:04-00:08] THE BIG CITY — Wide shot: the tiny robot crosses a huge neon intersection as hover-buses glide overhead and people rush past with umbrellas.
[00:08-00:12] LOST — It stops at a junction; its eyes become two question marks made of dots; it turns left, then right, the flag drooping in the rain.
[00:12-00:16] THE PUDDLE — It carefully steers around a deep puddle, but a passing scooter splashes it; it shakes like a wet dog, eyes squinting.
[00:16-00:20] THE SIDE STREET — It finds the route again (eyes turn to arrows) and rolls into a quiet side street lit by one warm lamp.
[00:20-00:24] THE DOOR — It bumps gently against an old wooden door. The door opens; the elderly man looks down in surprise at the little dripping robot.
[00:24-00:28] THE PAYOFF — The lid opens and steam rises from the warm meal; the man smiles softly and pats the robot's head; its eyes become two little hearts and it does a small victory spin before rolling back into the rain.

SOUND: heavy rain, distant traffic and hover-bus hum, sizzling food stalls, the robot's soft electric whirr and cheerful beeps, a scooter splash, the creak of the door, a warm synth and piano theme at the end.
RULES: the robot is cute and non-humanoid, no readable text or brand logos on signs, no violence, consistent robot design, one continuous route.

Cinematic photoreal sci-fi short, 28 s, 16:9: a knee-high six-wheeled white delivery robot with blue LED eyes, an orange light strip and a tiny orange antenna flag carries a steaming meal through a rainy neon city at night. It crosses a huge intersection under hover-buses, gets lost (eyes become question marks), is splashed by a scooter and shakes off, finds a quiet side street and delivers the meal to an elderly man in a cardigan, who smiles and pats it; its eyes turn into hearts and it spins happily. Teal-magenta neon reflections, anamorphic flares, low tracking shots, rain and soft beeps, no readable text.

Delivery robot: Knee-high six-wheeled delivery robot, rounded white body, orange light strip around the lid, blue LED eyes on a small screen that change shape, small orange antenna flag.

Elderly customer: Elderly man with silver hair, cardigan over a checked shirt.
