Migration - the new Illumination's animated comedy

One of the animation studios that manages to balance critics and audiences with their films is Illumination, which at Christmas will take us into the world of bird migrations. The first official trailer below.

Migration is directed by Benjamin Renner (director of the French Ernest & Celestine and The Big Bad Fox and Other Tales) based on an original story conceived by Mike White (School of Rock, The White Lotus) and also produced by the studio boss Christopher Meledandri.

The Mallard family is in a bit of rut. While dad Mack is content to keep his family safe paddling around their New England pond forever, mom Pam is eager to shake things up and show their kids - teen son Dax and duckling daughter Gwen - the whole wide world. After a migrating duck family alights on their pond with thrilling tales of far-flung places, Pam persuades Mack to embark on a family trip, via New York City, to tropical Jamaica.

As the Mallards make their way South for the winter, their well-laid plans quickly go awry. The experience will inspire them to expand their horizons, open themselves up to new friends and accomplish more than they ever thought possible, while teaching them more about each other - and themselves - than they ever imagined.

The film will arrive in theaters on December 22nd. Here the official trailer:
