Disney Pixar Turning Red storyline
Set in Canada, thirteen-year-old Mei Lee is going to math class when, outside the window, a safety officer recognizes a gatecrasher on the grounds — her excessively protective mother, Ming. Unexpectedly, an agitated and feared Mei Lee, to the hints of the Backstreet Boys’ “Larger than life” transforms into a monster red panda to get away from her humiliating circumstance. A giant red panda jumping across building-to-building in agitation becomes the highlight. Finally, in the end, she tries to calm herself down and poofs back into a girl, and then becomes a panda again where she cries in agony.

Domee Shi
Young actress Rosalie Chiang lends her voice to Mei Lee. “Turning Red” is the first feature film directed by Oscar-winner Domee Shi. Her short film for Disney’s Pixar, “Bao” (2018), won the Academy Award for a best animated short film, and it was the first Pixar short directed by a woman. “Turning Red” is also the first Pixar feature film directed by a woman of Asian descent (the first Pixar film to be directed by a woman was 2012’s “Brave,” co-directed by Brenda Chapman). As with “Bao,” the new film was an adaptation of Shi’s relationship with her mother.
“I’m an only child with Chinese parents, so I was very protected. I’d always been my mom’s ‘little dumpling,’” said Shi in an interview with The Chronicle about “Bao” in 2018.
