LOS ANGELES, Nov 13 - In a refreshing departure from traditional fairy tales, the new animated film 'In Your Dreams' tackles the harsh realities of family conflict head-on. Actor Simu Liu, who stars in the movie, believes that children deserve to see realistic portrayals of families that aren't always perfect. The film, which opens in theaters on Friday, follows the journey of sister Stevie and brother Elliot as they search for The Sandman, who can supposedly save their parents' marriage. However, the plot takes a more realistic turn as Stevie discovers that there's no magic solution to real-life problems. Director Alex Woo, a Pixar alumnus, worked with a talented voice cast, including Emmy winner Cristin Milioti and 'The Office' actor Craig Robinson. Milioti, who won a Grammy for her album 'Once,' praised the film's portrayal of a strained couple finding harmony through music. The movie's message is clear: real families fight, and fixing things takes more than just a dream. Stevie's journey ends with a poignant truth that resonates with audiences of all ages: life doesn't always go as planned. In 'In Your Dreams,' the team at Sony Pictures Imageworks has created an adventure-comedy film that will leave viewers thinking long after the credits roll. With its honest portrayal of family conflict, this movie is a breath of fresh air in the world of animation.
