As the Day of the Dead draws near, young Miguel defies his family to enter a talent contest – but borrowing a guitar from the tomb of a local musical icon spirits him (and lovable stray dog Dante) into the afterlife, where the carnival is also in full swing! Can Miguel find a way back with the blessing of his late relatives – and even solve a family mystery? Pixar’s celebration of Mexican culture is a return to the heights of Inside Out and Wall-E – an unequivocally life-affirming, hilarious, moving and wondrously designed masterpiece.

Screenings at 2.30pm* and 7.30pm
* The 2.30pm screening will be subtitled for the benefit of those with a hearing loss
Director: Roger Ross Williams
Features: Owen Suskind, Ron Suskind
23 year old Owen has a network of family and friends and is about to graduate from a college for autistic young people – a great achievement after a childhood in which he became totally uncommunicative.
While the unflagging support of a patient, loving family has been vital, Owen also found that Disney cartoons could unlock an understanding of both the real world and his own emotions.
This impressive, heartwarming documentary celebrates both Disney and Owen’s own animated visions, yet does not shy away from their limitations and the challenges he still faces.
