With the release of the Disney movie 'Turning Red,' Domee Shi is the first woman to solo-direct a Pixar film in the studio's 36-year history.
She credits Pixar legend Pete Docter for his mentorship and encouragement to pitch what would become"Bao," an 8-minute short about a dumpling that comes to life with a shocking twist at the end meant to symbolize theof a parent: The older woman, an empty nester who raises and cares for the dumpling brought to life, eats it in an act equally destructive as it is meant to be protective.
Shi was then allowed to re-pitch her original idea:"I think because of that experience it gave me the confidence to not be afraid to try bold, weird and shocking things in the stories I want to tell — to not censor myself," she said.
