This is a truly great piece of Science Fiction. There are several clues sprinkled around, the first being the length of time passed in the facility and the age of 'Daughter'. Another clue is outside the facility where crops are being grown, for who? There are no humans left.
The droid is part of a single consciousness, it, along with the other 'outside' droids, have a single purpose, the survival of humanity, yet in order to achieve this, the droid needs to undertake moral end ethical decisions, something it is achieving, but is it only a facsimile of ethical understanding.
It's a clever, atmospheric and vaguely threatening movie. If you follow it and don't take the obvious as truth, you will see who 'Mother' truly is. There are some anomalies, the woman's religious beliefs, preying over and over. The differences in the bullet calibre etc. but I'm pretty sure if I watch it again, I'll figure it out.
This is a clever adult SciFi unlike the usual dross. Low budget, high quality.
