It is about the migration route, understood as the unfortunate tribulations that a migrant from any region of the world has to undergo in order to overcome the fearsome difficulties they face when leaving their familiar place of origin to arrive elsewhere. In this new place they are seen as different and alien. Migrants face the animosity of society, the hardships of misery, the exploitation that desolates them, and the racism that subdues them. Interculturality, sociocultural identity and racism concur in the representation of these migratory processes. The convergence of these particular concepts is what guides my sociocultural analysis of the three-dimensional animated film Coco, released in October 2017 at the Morelia International Film Festival. This audiovisual production was declared “a love letter to Mexico” both by its two directors Lee Unkrich and Adrian Molina, as well as by its producer Darla K. Anderson. The media repeated this statement over and over again, but that does not make it true. An analysis using a critical and historical approach reveals the sociohistorical content that is expressed in the historical, dramatic, and technical constructions of Coco’s characters, places, costumes, and situations. Aquí trataremos un tema que ha sido ampliamente abordado por los estudios políticos y sociales. Se trata de la ruta de la migración, las desventuradas tribulaciones que un migrante de cualquier región del mundo tiene que sufrir para sortear las temibles dificultades a las que hace frente al abandonar su familiar lugar de origen y llegar a otra parte, donde es visto como diferente y ajeno. Los migrantes se enfrentan a la animadversión de la sociedad, a las penurias de la miseria, a la explotación que los asuela y al racismo que los sobaja. En la representación de estos procesos migratorios concurren la interculturalidad, la identidad sociocultural y el racismo. Este es el enfoque que nos guía al hacer un análisis sociocultural de la película de animación tridimensional Coco, estrenada en octubre de 2017 en el Festival Internacional de Cine de Morelia. Esta producción audiovisual fue declarada “una carta de amor para México” tanto por sus dos directores Lee Unkrich y Adrian Molina, así como por su productora Darla K. Anderson. Los medios de comunicación repitieron dicha afirmación hasta la saciedad, pero ello no lo hace verdad. Un análisis de carácter crítico e histórico revela el contenido sociohistórico que se expresa en las construcciones histórica, dramática y técnica de los personajes, lugares, vestuarios y situaciones de Coco.
