Why it’s a little special

An unusual animal fantasy that asks how people handle regret and whether caring for someone always means staying close to them.

BEFORE YOU PRESS PLAY

Know the story.
Know your little people.

Parental guidance suggested

US film rating

A fatal car crash, bereavement, animal mistreatment, medical experimentation, and danger. Reincarnation is central, and the tone is often sad rather than comic.

Our notes are a starting point, not an age recommendation. G and PG films can still include intense moments. You know your family best.
