*Some contents of the movie have been revealed. Elemental

Considering the name ‘Elemental‘ Many people may think that this is a fun adventure animation. that can be viewed lightheartedly but in fact Elemental It’s not even close to the adventure movies people are used to. Because the movie doesn’t take us to travel to many areas like Zootopia, Up or Onward Instead, this film will take the audience to explore the lives of the characters that reflect the transition from being a citizen of the country (National Citizen) to being a global citizen (Global Citizen).

Although the foreground is a love story between Ember. (Voice of Leah Lewis: Leah Lewis), a girl from the Land of Fire; and Wade (Voice of Mamoudou Athie), a sensitive water boy. But behind the romantic curtain lies the story of the prejudice each race has once morest one another. the hostility that arises from that prejudice clear separation of living space Exclusion from the majority of society and not being associated with other elements unnecessarily

The fire elemental race, a new immigrant from a distant land, didn’t seem very welcoming. Because it is seen as causing accidents and damage to others. As if wanting to reflect the problem of immigrants in Europe, although there are organizations to help But some people in the area expressed dissatisfaction. or even in a country of freedom like the United States of America There are not many people who do not welcome Asians who migrate to settle in foreign countries.

While the Fire elemental tribe viewed the Water elemental as dangerous and annoying. Live life regardless of its impact on others. Causing the fire elemental tribe to create their own community (similar to Chinatown) and live with independent beliefs and culture. It’s like living in your own country in the past. Before the end, all 4 elements will open their minds to learn from each other and live together like today’s global society that can travel across the country and live in a foreign country.

in addition Elemental It also subtly describes the differences in parenting culture between western and eastern people. This difference in upbringing has resulted in Ember and Wade being characters with different personalities.

If analyzed according to psychological principles Ember is the representative of children who have received strict upbringing. (Authoritarian Parenting Style) Ember’s father kept telling her that she was going to inherit the family business. without ever asking regarding Amber’s needs And she never questioned herself either. Children who grow up under this kind of upbringing are obedient. But there is aggression inside. and has a high level of emotional sensitivity Like Ember is strict towards himself. Parents’ disappointment is the deadliest. And Ember gets hot headed very easily.

Wade represents the caring child raised. (Authoritative Parenting Style) We see that Wade’s family is not very serious regarding children, giving children the opportunity to try different things. and always ready to support when encountering disappointments or regrets Wade grew up to be optimistic and flexible. have the freedom to live

A meeting with Wade not only stirred romantic feelings in Ember’s heart. It also allowed Ember to experience a wider world that she had never seen before. Meet more and more people Realize that there is more to this world than you ever knew. And come back to question yourself what her true needs are.

In addition to his own needs Ember is also unaware of how special his unique abilities are. Maybe because that’s what she does on a regular basis, it doesn’t look special. Or maybe it was because there were only parents’ expectations in her head. And her parents never spoke regarding or appreciated her skill. But it was Wade and his family that showed Ember how remarkable her abilities were.

Even realizing these things creates enough confusion and distraction for Ember. But in the end, accepting herself allowed Ember to begin a life that truly belonged to her.

However, even though many ideas were conveyed to the audience, Elemental It’s also an animation that’s easy to watch, and even children can watch it with fun and enjoyment. With the quality of the beautiful visual work, there is no doubt that the Pixar camp name (Pixar) characters are cute and curly. And the futuristic scenes excite children, so it’s a good choice for family activities.
