Answer:
yes, it is a nice story
Explanation:
While reading the credits of the new animated feature "Spirit Untamed," a few things stick out: the first is the star-studded voice cast, but the second is how many women played key roles in bringing the the film to life.
"Spirit Untamed," the second film in the "Spirit" franchise, which also includes the 2002 film "Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron," and the Netflix series "Spirit Riding Free," is written by Aury Wallington and Kristin Hahn and directed by Elaine Bogan (her co-director is Ennio Torresan Jr.), and features a female producer, composer and other female department heads.
One can't help but feel that the gender representation behind the camera is an integral part to the authentic sense of girls' empowerment espoused by the film, the story of a young girl and her unique connection to a wild mustang, Spirit.
What's also striking about "Spirit Untamed" is that the story is grounded within a (somewhat) realistic, recognizable world, in the 19th century American Southwest. So many animated films tend toward the supernatural, the folkloric, the magical, populated with friendly monsters and talking animals as the medium allows. It's somewhat refreshing to see an animated film tell what is essentially a formulaic hero's journey story without relying on the extraordinary.
