THE BOOK OF LIFE - Have a taste of Mexican culture !

THE BOOK OF LIFE


It's the story of three childhood friends - Manolo, Maria, & Joaquin, who grew up together in Mexico. When they grew up, they had to go their separate ways. One had to pursue her studies; the other two had to find their true calling. 





This could easily pass as one of the top animated features of the year. Colorful, vibrant, magical ! Director Jorge Gutiérrez and Producer  Guillermo Del Toro  bring to us a taste of Mexican folklore through the festivities of Dia de los Muertos (day of the Dead). The animation is unconventional as they make use of hand-painted figurines made of wood. While the story is about family, courage, and love. 


Featuring the voices of Diego Luna as Manolo, Zoe Saldana as Maria, and Channing Tatum as Joaquin. Kids and grown-ups will love this !
