In “Sanjay’s Super Team,” the new short film from Pixar Animation Studios that will precede Disney•Pixar’s THE GOOD DINOSAUR!, accomplished artist Sanjay Patel uses his own experience to tell the story of a young, first-generation Indian-American boy whose love for western pop culture comes into conflict with his father’s traditions.
Sanjay is absorbed in the world of cartoons and comics, while his father tries to draw him into the traditions of his Hindu practice. Tedium and reluctance quickly turn into an awe-inspiring adventure as the boy embarks on a journey he never imagined, returning with a new perspective that they can both embrace.
Check out the first clip from the Disney•Pixar short film “Sanjay’s Super Team” that will precede Disney•Pixar’s THE GOOD DINOSAUR!
“Sanjay’s Super Team” opens in theaters everywhere on November 25th, in front of Disney•Pixar’s THE GOOD DINOSAUR!
