Product Overview

Depicting the psyche of an eleven-year-old girl as a world unto itself controlled by anthropomorphised emotions, Pete Docter's animated children's film effectively represents – albeit with some elisions – current scientific understandings of memory, dreams and emotional classification. As Dave Crewe outlines, Inside Out offers stimuli for classroom discussion on a range of relevant topics, from the creation of core memories to hippocampal replay.
