The 9-minute film debuted Friday as one of seven films in the studio’s SparkShorts program. SparkShorts aims to “discover new storytellers, explore new storytelling techniques, and experiment with new production workflows,” in the words of Pixar president Jim Morris. “These films are unlike anything we’ve ever done at Pixar, providing an opportunity to unlock the potential of individual artists and their inventive filmmaking approaches on a smaller scale than our normal fare.

In the film, main character Greg is preparing to move into the city with his boyfriend, Manuel. Greg is gripped by the difficulty of coming out as gay to his parents, who have paid a surprise visit to help him pack for his move. A dramatic series of events initiated by the couple’s dog ensues. As the official logline puts it, “With some help from his precocious pup, and a little bit of magic, Greg might learn that he has nothing to hide.

Are we still on this first gay character stuff in 2020. Maybe we wouldn't be if either corporations weren't sellouts and they hired better writers.

It’s so well done & love how the animation even was unique from the expected ‘Pixar’ look. Bravo 👏 to all involved! Beautiful

You appear to have a reporter unable to tell Bree Olson (successful porn star with no connection to Marvel) with Brie Larson (an Oscar nominated actor who stars in a Marvel franchise), but also unable to spell Bree Olson's name. Getting one or the other correct would be nice.

Gay

Now make a feature film that opens in theaters with gay or lesbian characters and stop making it easy for your editors to edit out for foreign markets that don’t agree. So far all of Disney’s “gay characters” have boiled down to this...

Who is making these decisions to force this on American families?

It's bloody adorable.
