When you don't contribute to the family, they don't care about you, or you haven't been proven, they don't know you. Encanto tells us that insecurities start within the Family. Whole family should watch this master piece. I cry a lot so much on this movie. The music is on point base in story of each member of the family and for me this is one of the best animated movie of 2021. Encanto is a must-watch. Please don't miss it.

The madrigal

The Madrigal family, whose members are hidden away in the faraway highlands of Colombia, is the subject of the latest Disney animated musical. The film follows a group of characters that have magical abilities and perform grandiose musical performances.

Disney's Encanto is a fairly straightforward movie about a family that has to mend in some way, with a hefty dose of magical realism. Who wouldn't want to see a family with magical abilities? We've all fantasized about having them and debating what we'd do with them and what the best powers are, so who wouldn't want to see a family with them?

Thoughts in Encanto

So, in the ecanto story, everyone in the madrigal family has powers except our girl Mirabel, so she has insecurities because she feels she has no contribute. Disney, after all, brought us together via shared experience, which is generational trauma.

Let's admit it we are all related to mirabel because that some point felt like we're not enough and we can never be enough. It's an experience that we can all have, especially as we get older, and we can't really blame her mother or grandmother for making her feel that way because their attitude and projection of their trauma upon Mirabel is also the result of a traumatic experience and I don't think we can dismiss that. Consider how, in order for Abuela to survive the war, she had to flee her house in order to save her family. It doesn't excuse her attitude, but it's clear that she's putting a lot of pressure on Mirabel.

Julieta is her gift of healing through her meals, imagine the burden of being a doctor to your whole community, in my opinion all this pressure is projected on their children and grandchildren. And I think that's the whole message of generational trauma.

But, more importantly, I'd like to discuss the relationships of Luisa and Isabela since, based on her song, many people assume Luisa is the oldest, but it's actually Isabel, which makes perfect sense to me. As we can see, the eldest is the favorite, the golden child, and as a result, the middle child is compelled to compensate by working hard or being the breadwinner, and it takes time to realize that not only the eldest, but also the middle children are the breadwinners.

Most importantly, what I learned away from the story is that your gift does not ensure happiness; rather, their gifts are a burden for them. Because Luisa's gift is strength, she is under a lot of pressure to help. Isabella is under pressure to be flawless because her powers have expanded in the area of beauty. Imagine having to be grateful for good weather all of the time when you're with Aunt Pepa. Their gifts became their burden at some point, and I believe that this serves as a reminder that we don't have moral authority to treat others badly just because the more we feel, the better we feel, because we're all in difficulty, and all of these details and lessons make this film a must-see for me.

Additional thoughts

  • Luisa's song made me realize that even the strongest person have it's weakness

  • Bruno for me, he deserved to be loved. That abuela and the other madrigal families just misinterpreted bruno's power so that's why.

  • And many more, I can't write it all because I have so many thoughts about this movie because it's really good story.
