About COCO

Despite his family's generations-by-generation ban on music, Miguel (voiced by Anthony Gonzalez) dreams of becoming an important musician as his idol Ernesto de la Cruz (voiced by Benjamin Bratt). Desperate to prove his talent, Miguel finds himself magically transported to the colorful and wonderful Land of the Dead following a mysterious chain of events.

Along the way, he meets the charming but very cheating Hector (voiced by Gael García Bernal) and together, they set off on an extraordinary journey to solve the real story behind the story of Miguel's family.
