Elemental.
Different worlds. A shared spark.
In a city where the elements live side by side, fiery Ember meets easygoing Wade. Their growing connection challenges what she believes about her future, her family's expectations and the boundaries between them.
Watch the official trailer ↗Why it’s a little special
A vivid city provides the backdrop for a tender story about family expectations and finding your own direction. Watch for the wonderfully expressive water people.
BEFORE YOU PRESS PLAY
Know the story.
Know your little people.
Prejudice, family pressure, romantic feelings and a flood. Characters face apparent death, and a rescue sequence is emotionally intense.
Our notes are a starting point, not an age recommendation. G and PG films can still include intense moments. You know your family best.
