In a surprising but welcome move, Disney’s new wordless animated short film “Versa” is receiving strong praise for its powerful pro-life themes. Director Malcon Pierce created the story to honor his unborn son Cooper, whom he and his wife lost during complications while he worked on “Moana.”
The film follows a couple’s joy at discovering pregnancy, then their deep grief after losing their child. Through animation, it portrays the lasting impact of unborn life and the path toward healing.
Disney has rarely promoted pro-life messages, yet “Versa” marks the second recent production—after “Fantastic Four”—to honor the sanctity and value of every human life, born and preborn.
In a culture that often dismisses the unborn, this short film quietly affirms a profound truth: every life is important, no matter how brief.
Praise God for nothing is impossible with Him!
