It might look like we’re jumping into children’s movies, but rather Inside Out is an inventive animated film that takes you on a journey from the Inside Out to discover the emotional roller coaster inside your head.

Riley (Kaitlyn Dias) is a happy, hockey-loving 11-year-old Midwestern girl, but her world turns upside-down when she and her parents move to San Francisco. Riley’s emotions — led by Joy (Amy Poehler) — try to guide her through this difficult, life-changing event. However, the stress of the move brings Sadness (Phyllis Smith) to the forefront. When Joy and Sadness are inadvertently swept into the far reaches of Riley’s mind, the only emotions left in Headquarters are Anger, Fear and Disgust.

Consulting extensively with neuropsychologists in the creation of this film, it provides wonderful insight as to how the brain works. Check out this article discussing some of the pertinent concepts that are included: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/8-things-inside-teaches-viewers-804052
