Celebrating the power of connecting to one's past

Rating: 8/10 (10 December 2017)

12/7/17. Saw this in the theater today, and so glad I did! What a wonderful celebration of the power of music and the Mexican tradition of Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead)! While it may seem morbid for those not familiar with this celebration, I think it is a wonderful way to take 3 days to celebrate the memories of loved ones who have died, and the healing power of having a connection with one's past. Wonderfully done, with a little plot twist to keep the adults entertained, this movie is worth catching.
