Finding Nemo
Finding Nemo is an animated film produced by Pixar, released in 2003. The screenplay was written by Andrew Stanton, who co-directed the film alongside Lee Unkrich, with both Pixar and Walt Disney collaborating on its production. The story revolves around a clownfish named Marlin (voiced by Albert Brooks) and a regal blue tang fish named Dory (voiced by Ellen DeGeneres) on their quest to find Marlin’s son, Nemo (voiced by Alexander Gould), who has been captured by a diver.
The excerpt that you just watched is the climax of the film. At this point, Nemo has managed to escape from the fish tank of dentist Philip Sherman and is attempting to find his way back home. However, when the two fish meet, they suddenly find themselves caught in a net. In a moment of desperation, Nemo sacrifices himself to save the others. The scene is filled with tension as all the fish work together to free themselves from the net. Ultimately, through their collective effort, they manage to break free and escape the danger.
Since its release in 2003, Finding Nemo has become a cultural phenomenon in the global film industry, grossing an impressive $864 million at the box office worldwide. This success earned the film an Academy Award for Best Animated Feature.
