Full program
Luca (2021) G Animated, Adventure. 1 hr 30 mins.
Age recommendation: Ages 6+ Sweet fish-out-of-water story about friendship, adventure
Luca and his best friend Alberto experience an unforgettable summer together by the seaside. But all the fun is threatened by a deeply held secret: they are sea monsters from another world just below the water’s surface.
Luca is Pixar's film about two sea creatures who leave their watery homes to discover the wonders of the surface in a small village on the Italian Riviera. It's a sweet coming-of-age story about courage, curiosity, empathy, perseverance, teamwork, and friendship—specifically, that of Luca (voiced by Jacob Tremblay) and his best friend Alberto (voiced by Jack Dylan Grazer). This is a great film for the family to enjoy together, that captures the delights of Italian coastal living.
