One of the best pieces of representation for women’s hockey came out last year. It’s Inside Out 2, the sequel to the hugely popular Pixar movie beloved by children and adults alike for helping us understand the emotions whirling around in our minds. Its main character, 13-year-old Riley, is a hockey player, which means the Packers have feelings about this film. They chat about what it meant to see a woman’s hockey team in a popular kid’s movie and then sit down with Meg LeFauvre and Kelsey Mann, the film’s co-writer and director, respectively, to discuss why they chose hockey to portray the emotional swings of adolescence. They also talk about the making of the film, reveal how Kelsey’s own childhood informed the narrative, and why the creative team had to go “into the lava” to create the movie’s most memorable moments.
