Raya and the Last Dragon
Raya and the Last Dragon
Accommodative Screening. Special guest: Introduction by co-director Carlos López Estrada.
A young warrior princess named Raya (voiced by Kelly Marie Tran) tries to reunite her kingdom by finding the last survivor of the race of dragons that used to protect her people. This computer-animated fantasy adventure is a visual feast inspired by Southeast Asian cultures and legends. Nominated for the 2021 Animated Feature Film Oscar, Raya and the Last Dragon was created largely by filmmakers working remotely during the COVID-19 pandemic.
On the last Saturday of every month, the museum's Family Matinee is an accommodative screening where we offer open captioning, keep the theater dimly lit, and maintain a lower volume specifically for neurodivergent viewers.
