About This Lesson
Bao, a short Pixar film by Domee Shi, was released in 2018. The short film explores themes central to immigration including family, culture, empty nest syndrome and food. At Re-imagining Migration, we encourage educators to highlight educational media that humanize the experiences of migration and Bao is a wonderful resource that is both entertaining and educational. This resource offers guidance for parents, teachers, librarians, and others seeking to use the film to promote the development of inclusive and welcoming communities.
