Elio, a space fanatic with an active imagination, finds himself on a cosmic misadventure where he must form new bonds with alien lifeforms, navigate a crisis of intergalactic proportions and somehow discover who he is truly meant to be.
In “Elio,” the universe calls back! The cosmic misadventure introduces Elio, a space fanatic with an active imagination and a huge alien obsession.
“He’s an unusual kid who’s obsessed with getting abducted by aliens,” says director Domee Shi. Elio feels like there’s nothing for him on Earth—he dreams of going to another world where he’s accepted for who he is.”

It's woke, it was made by a "gay" person and would have been about acceptance of sexual sin despite Disney's efforts to re-do the film

If you watch the movie with the understanding that it was retrofitted to accommodate a more mainstream, non-woke audience you can definitely see where the film's original direction was going. Though many of us (and I personally) may disagree with the gay lifestyle, I don't use that as a metric to define if a show is woke or not. As a matter of fact, I am very intentional about not judging a show's woke status by the talent's action's off-screen as that would eliminate nearly every show from consideration in most instances. The fact that Disney DID change the film before it's release and eliminated the woke elements (at least as far as I'm concerned... though you might disagree) is a positive sign and I personally give credit where its due. With that said, this is a community moderated site, so you can moderate accordingly. If you feel strongly, you should add your criteria to the show which will give it a woke label ...if enough people agree with you.
