A neat look behind the scenes of 'Turning Red', though not the most interesting. The actual film is very good, fwiw.
It's more about the people who made the film as opposed to the film itself, which is all fine but I'm always more interested in the onscreen stuff and the cast. We get to see a bit...

This doesn't show too much of the actual production, and it's stronger for it. Instead, it paints a beautiful portrait of the crew that shaped TURNING RED into what it is, showing how their lives informed everything from the character modeling to the production design and lighting, very cool stuff!
