Deep in space, a somewhat disturbed scientist appears before the Grand Council of the Galactic Federation. His crime: creating, after several genetic experiments, a small monster with exceptional destructive potential. The creature, nicknamed “Experiment 6-2-6”, has been deemed out of control by the Council and is doomed to exile on an abandoned asteroid. But during his transmission, the one we soon know as Stitch manages to escape and ends up on Earth in Hawaii.
At the same time, a little girl named Lilo, raised by her older sister Nan, arrives late for dance class and gets into an argument with her classmates. He desperately needs a friend who understands him.

A Disney like no other
Even if it combines the qualities that made the great Disney prestigious – humor, emotions and first animation – Lilo and Stitch is a separate film in the history of the studio.
Halfway between a sci-fi space opera and a family comedy, this little tale unlike any other features characters that are more human and more grounded in reality than ever before: a far cry from the princesses and mythological heroes that graced the studio in the previous decade , Lilo. and his big sister Nan are facing problems that couldn’t be more pragmatic. Manage relationships with friends at school, finding a job or even social services visits, for example.
Two irresistible characters
It is in this prosaic context, brightened by the beautiful pastel colors of the Hawaiian landscape, that the character of Stitch is presented. Insufferable, uncontrollable, disrespectful, impudent… incredibly attractive.
Indeed, with his unusual appearance, cute face and inimitable voice, the little alien quickly became one of Disney’s new darlings, allowing the firm to sell many products bearing his image.
But Stitch isn’t the only character in the film we’re attached to at first sight, far from it! Perhaps even cuter than her cosmic alter ego, little Lilo is perhaps one of the most beloved characters in Disney history.
Trying her best to overcome the grief of her parents, constantly testing the authority of her older sister, she immediately captivates the audience with her humor, zest for life, her cute sayings and, of course, her unconditional love for Elvis Presley. whose songs constantly accompany the soundtrack of the film.
