Pixar heads to the canals of Venice for Gatto, an animated comedy adventure featuring the voices of Mark Ruffalo, Laurence Fishburne and an impressive ensemble cast. Directed by Enrico Casarosa, the film follows a street-smart black cat whose criminal connections and unexpected friendship send his life in a very different direction.
A Cat in Trouble
After years of navigating the winding canals and superstitious streets of Venice, Nero has become pretty good at looking after himself. Unfortunately, his street smarts haven’t kept him out of trouble. Deeply indebted to Rocco, a ruthless feline mob boss, the scrappy black cat faces an uncertain future.
An unexpected friendship may offer Nero a chance to find a new purpose, but escaping his past won’t be easy. Blending comedy, crime and adventure, Gatto explores friendship, second chances and the possibility of starting over.
