Summary:
Walt Disney Animation Studios’ “Encanto” tells the tale of an extraordinary family, the Madrigals, who live hidden in the mountains of Colombia, in a magical house, in a vibrant town, in a wondrous, charmed place called an Encanto. The magic of the Encanto has blessed every child in the family with a unique gift from super strength to the power to heal—every child except one, Mirabel (voice of Stephanie Beatriz). But when she discovers that the magic surrounding the Encanto is in danger, Mirabel decides that she, the only ordinary Madrigal, might just be her exceptional family’s last hope.
What our Vetting Team has to Say:
“I think it would be best to watch it with subtitles since the lyrics for the songs can be really fast and hard to understand.”
“I love the different shades of the skin color of the family members. I liked how different each person was, yet they played an important role in the family.
"The movie promotes family communication and conversations surrounding intergenerational trauma and family history.”
