#SPOTTED: DOMEE SHI IN TORONTO FOR “BAO”

Canada has every reason to be proud!  Toronto-raised, Chinese-born Domee Shi becomes the first ever female Director to helm a PIXAR Short in BAO, which plays before The Incredibles 2 in theatres next weekend when it gets released. The Short deals with the issue of depression for an empty-nesting mother who gets a second chance at motherhood when one of her handmade dumplings comes to life! How adorable.

 

Unsure if you’ve seen it yet, but here is a Teaser:

 

We spotted Shi out and about promoting her work today as she did the rounds in Toronto! Definitely a name to look-out for!

 

See our Snap!
