Title: Inside Out (2015)

IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2096673/?ref_=nv_sr_1

Contributed By: Paige

"After young Riley is uprooted from her Midwest life and moved to San Francisco, her emotions - Joy, Fear, Anger, Disgust and Sadness - conflict on how best to navigate a new city, house, and school.

I felt this was a good jumping off point for talking about emotions, what they feel like, what they mean, why we have them, and how they impact our lives and the lives of those around us. With Adults and kids alike."

"The useful themes brought out by the film are the redemption of the two children Colin and Sarah from selfish, angry, demanding and entitled to more loving by meeting and interacting with two poor Yorkshire children who have more love than they do and their developing love of nature and animals."
