What do you have in Inside
out?
In
Christmas time I had a chance to see Inside out, a
animated comedy whose premier was released in June last year. The
main character is Riley- about a ten years old girl who lives in
Minnesota with her parents. Riley is a lively, enterprising, outgoing
child. She is a ice hokey player and she really enjoys training it.
She has a great circle of friends. But what does differ this animated
comedy from others? It is something creative-we can see what controls the Riley's mind. There are four emotions: Joe, Fear, Anger and
Sadness, who constitute the rest of the cast. These emotions function
like a Railey's headquarter. Fortunately, Joe usually takes the helm
:). We have not only the possibility of observing Railey's mind, but
also the parents' mind.
However,
the family had to move to San Francisco due to father's job. At this
moment, the girl's behaviour has changed. Joe does her best, but she
has gotten lost and winds through the mind.. Railey is overwhelmed
with a new environment...
I
consider this comedy a good way of spending a family or friend
evening. On the one hand it points that we can control our emotions
and our mental state is a conscious decision. It reminds me about
ability to focus on the present moment, what is the premise of
mindfulness. On the other hand, we should know all emotions we can
feel. The adults should teach the children that feel fear or angry is
normal, but they have to be able to cope with them.
