In Far From the Tree, danger lurks around every corner and the audience feels the anxiety of the adult raccoon as they try to keep their little one safe. But constantly stopping their child from exploring and always saying no takes a toll on the relationship, and on how the young raccoon experiences the world. When the young raccoon grows and has a child of its own, it falls into the same pattern of always saying no and trying to shelter the child from the world to keep them safe. Luckily, the now-adult raccoon remembers their own childhood and is able to adjust their method from sheltering to teaching, showing that in a world of danger it is still possible to live with an open heart.
Far From the Tree opens in U.S. theaters with the new Walt Disney Animation Studios feature, Encanto on November 24, 2021. While you wait, check out these great shorts on Disney+.
