Pixar’s resident metaphysical sage, Pete Docter, has created – along with co-director and writer Kemp Powers – another fantastical treatment tinged with sadness. Music teacher and pianist Joe (voiced by Jamie Foxx) hopes to work as a jazz musician but dies prematurely. On his quest to return to Earth, he finds himself in a world of unborn souls and meets the rebel 22 (Tina Fey), who doesn’t want to have a life at all.
