Turning Red

GROWING PAINS — Disney and Pixar’s all-new original feature film “Turning Red” introduces 13-year-old Mei Lee, a confident-but-dorky teenager torn between staying her mother’s dutiful daughter and the chaos of adolescence. And as if changes to her interests, relationships and body weren’t enough, she also “poofs” into a giant red panda at decidedly inconvenient times. Featuring Rosalie Chiang as the voice of Mei Lee, “Turning Red” will debut exclusively on Disney+ (where Disney+ is available) on March 11, 2022. © 2022 Disney/Pixar. All Rights Reserved.

A coming-of-age tale set in the early 2000s about Asian-American Meilin “Mei” Lee, “Turning Red” is a wonderful animated feature that talks about the struggles of growing up and family relationships, all while Mei has to deal with transforming into a red panda.

Turning Red is nominated for Animated Feature Film.

Le Pupille

Le Pupille is an Italian short film about the adventures of rebellious girls in a strict Catholic school during World War II. The story deals with youthful innocence, greed, and fantasy surrounding—interestingly—a sweet custard cake.

The film is nominated for Short Film (Live Action).

Fire of Love

Fire of Love tells the story of Katia and Maurice Krafft, a husband-and-wife volcanologist duo who met a tragic end at the Mount Unzen eruption in 1991. The documentary uses archival footage to show us the lives of the Kraffts and their many adventures exploring the world’s volcanoes. The documentary is nominated for Documentary Feature Film.

Hosted by Jimmy Kimmel, catch the 95th Academy Awards, live on Disney+ on March 13 from 6.30am.
