a5c7b9f00b Bored with his father&#39;s meditation, a young Indian boy daydreams of Hindu godssuperheroes. Sanjay, a young boy, is watching his favourite cartoon show, the Super Team, while his father is preparing for the daily meditation. Undoubtedly, this is the day&#39;s most important activity, nevertheless, the boy has no interest in joining his father. But does Sanjay know that, sometimes, cunning and skilled adversaries can be hiding in the most unusual of places? &quot;Sanjay&#39;s Super Team&quot; (United States, 7 min.) – Probably the most widely seen of these five Oscar nominees, this animated short played in American theatersa featurette before showings of &quot;The Good Dinosaur&quot;. It&#39;s about a young Indian boy who&#39;s watching his favorite superhero cartoon when his father turns off the TV and brings the boy over to join him in prayer to the Hindu gods. As his dad prays, Sanjay daydreams a story in which the Hindu gods are superheroes. The story is based on the childhood of the film&#39;s director, Pixar animator Sanjay Patel. The film is a creative, colorful and entertaining meditation on the generation gap between fathers and sons and how that gap might be bridged. &quot;A-&quot; Sanjay&#39;s Super Team (2015) <br/><br/>*** (out of 4) <br/><br/>Mildly entertaining short from Pixar about a young boy named Sanjay who wants to watch his superheroes on television but his father demands that he join him in meditation. Soon the boy&#39;s fantasy takes formhe joins his superheroes in battle.<br/><br/>I must admit that I&#39;m a little surprised that SANJAY&#39;S SUPER TEAM was nominated for an Oscar. Well, I guess I shouldn&#39;t be surprised since it&#39;s from Pixar but I really didn&#39;t think this was among their best work. I will say that the animation is certainly the greatest thing going for the filmwe get some amazing visuals and especially the colors on the three Hindu gods. The story itself is okay but I really didn&#39;t find it to be too special.
