On the Days of the Dead (Dia de Los Muertos), there is excitement throughout Santa Cecilia. Villagers put up ofrenda and offering candles, food, and flowers to their ancestors. Miguel's ancestors are also placed on ofrenda, on the top frame containing his great-grandmother Coco's and great-great-grandmother Mama Imeldas' photo, which he accidentally broke. Then he discovered that a there is masked part of the photo showed his great-great-grandfather holding Ernesto's famous guitar. For this reason, Miguel believes Ernesto De la Cruz is his great-great-grandfather.

Miguel decided to enter the music competition Dia de Los Muertos. To participate he needs a guitar so he goes to Ernesto de las Cruz's grave to borrow Ernesto's guitar. While Miguel upholds and strung the guitar, he suddenly finds himself in the land of the dead. Where he reunites with his deceased family members and with his great-great-grandmother, Mama Imelda. Mama Imelda was surprised and little angry too, she promises to give Miguel the blessing so that he can return to earth, on one condition, that Miguel has to give up his music.

Instead giving up his music, he would reach out to de la Cruz, asking him for the blessing he needed to get home. During Miguel's journey, he met Hector, who is a charming trickster in the Land of the Dead who helped him to reach de la Cruz, and only asked Miguel to bring his photo to his relatives so he could also visit earth. In various turns of events, Miguel learns that de la Cruz is a fraud and he is related to Hector, who is his great-great-grandfather.

The film is filled with humor, fear, optimism, empathy and sincerity. The characters in the film are dynamic. As the biggest Example: for the first half of the film Ernesto Dela Cruz's character seems like a good character but when it was revealed by Miguel's real grandfather that de la Cruz has stolen his songs and style to earn fame as a singer and even killed him, in a blink, the character became evil to the viewers.

Miguel's character is also very dynamic. He is portrayed as a stubborn, rebellious kid who hates his family but later when the story unfolds Miguel becomes a sincere, obedient, confident boy who loves his family and understands its worth.

Miguel's nanny's character, Coco is silent throughout the film but at the end when she sings a song from her memory with her father that gives resolution to all the plot points including, will Hector be forever gone? would Coco be able to remember her father? would Miguel be able to give justice to his great grandfather? etc. and all these are answered without any dialogue but a song.

A masterpiece film's signature it is. I loved it. We follow the journey of Miguel whose first only obstacle in the introduction part of the film seems to be his family but later after the climax, in the resolution part, family turns would out to be his biggest strength. This film is intended for kids and the storytelling is quite simple to let them understand the message of the film, family is the biggest strength of a human being. Through this story, I think the creators wanted kids to appreciate their families. We need to be good listeners to create a good family.

Our love for each other will live on forever
In every beat of my proud corazón...
