This film is about having a secret you don't feel comfortable sharing with your parents. It's about being different and not feeling like it's acceptable to the mainstream world.
'Out' is important because it's by a mainstream media company like Disney. Produced by Pixar (another mainstream entertainment company).
Together they're saying we're OK with different people in our society so long as they are life affirmative.
I cried happy tears at the end even though I felt the tone of the film was aimed at a pantomime level appreciation of these complex emotions of the short film's characters. Their facial expressions could have more nuanced without losing the audience.
There's a plot twist that is inspired and helps lighten the misadventures into a kind of Buster Keaton Bugs Bunny manic energy while keeping the jeopardy of the main character alive.
All in all, a brave new addition for a world embracing non-mainstream humans into our open hearts and minds.
