Cartoons can be watched through the lens of ideology. From "The Lion King" to "Frozen", through "Shrek", "Mulan" and "Aladdin", writer Juan Sklar unveils a new world in which family dynamics, discrimination, racism and even class struggle are present. Going to the movies will never be the same. Reading Juan's work is a ticket to other worlds, like in his novels "We never arrived in India" and "Fourteen books", or his book of essays, "Letters to the son". He also suggests a new look to the most successful animated films in history in his book "Animated Ideologies" and in his columns on the radio.
