Directed by Andrew Stanton, this heartwarming adventure follows the journey of a clownfish named Marlin as he searches for his lost son, Nemo, after he is captured by a scuba diver and placed in a fish tank in a dentist’s office.

Tragedy strikes when Nemo is taken by a diver while swimming too far from the safety of his home. Marlin, determined to rescue his son, embarks on an epic journey across the ocean to find him. Along the way, Marlin is joined by Dory, a forgetful and optimistic blue tang fish, who becomes an unlikely and endearing companion.
