The animation revolves around the life of 'mijo' Miguel, a young and ambitious Mexican boy, from a shoe-making family who has a dream to become a superstar just like his deceased role-model Ernesto de la Cruz (voiced by renowned actor Benjamin Bratt). The thrilling adventure has some unexpected turn of events for Miguel during the Dia de los Muertos (the Day of the Dead), which lands him inside the creepy Land of the Dead where he somehow gets involved with a crook, Hector, all in a bid to uncover his family history.

The are many aspects of the film that were intriguing and largely contributed to its massive success. On one hand, the relatability to what most young individuals raised from conservative families go through in their endless attempts to seek a creative career or the extent that family members are willing to go in order to protect their loved ones and of course the importance of heeding to the advice given by parents. The emotional appeal used will leave you fighting back tears through some parts of the film.
