Movie · 2009

A warm Pixar adventure about an elderly widower and a young boy traveling to South America by balloon-lifted house. The film is broadly family-friendly but opens with an emotionally heavy montage covering loss, illness, and grief that is among the most affecting sequences in modern animation.
