Pixar movies have a special place in my heart. One of my favorite parts about going to see one is the animated short film that precedes the actual movie. Before “Coco,” however, came an original short which was neither original nor short. “Olaf’s Frozen Adventure” was the short in question, and after being forced to watch twenty-odd minutes of the all-too-familiar snowman from “Frozen” bellowing about the joys of a perfect Christmas, I was more than ready for “Coco” to start.

Pixar's latest is a masterpiece of animation and storytelling with it's characteristic warmth and humor wrapped in a no-cliches, culturally-specific narrative. The story takes place in Mexico, features an all-Latino cast, fluidly switches between Spanish and English, and introduces cultural elements that will be unfamiliar to white audiences -- often with no narrative explanation. In Pixar's 2012 movie Brave (set in the Scottish highlands), we're also immersed in a foreign culture, but most white movie-goers have at least a passing familiarity with bagpipes, tapestries, will-o-the-wisps, kilts and haggis jokes to understand the references. From the richness of son Mexicano to animated papel picado to ofrendas and alebrijes, the beauty and depth of Mexican culture is on full display. Coco is the story of 12-year old Miguel (Anthony Gonzales), an aspiring musician in a family where music has been banned for generations. During a Dia de los Muertos celebration, Miguel finds himself transported to the Land of the Dead where he enlists the help of calaca Hector (Gael García Bernal) to get him home. It is uniquely Mexican, but this coming-of-age tale is the perfect holiday film for families no matter their ethnic background.
