Conclusion

This is a beautiful movie to enjoy as a family, for a reason:

• She details that the family should be more important than anything else (currently this is already falling in almost all the family that separates).
• Dead relatives should remember them in the way they were in life.
• Details the Mexican culture on the Day of the Dead.
• The children will love it because it is very colorful, for its music. This film also details what happens to Mexicans who seek to emigrate to another country, abandoning their family to fulfill a dream, or to help their families working abroad (here in Venezuela we are living this, relatives are separated by the economic situation). So enjoy this wonderful movie.
