The events take place in the 2000s. Mei Li (Rosalie Chang) is 13 years old, she lives in Canada and is of Chinese descent. Growing up made the girl's life a little more difficult. Mei tries hard to remain a dutiful daughter to her overly caring mother Ming (Sandra Oh). However, the more effort she puts in, the more meticulous and attentive to details Mom becomes. At the same time, everything around changes - the circle of interests, preferences, and even the body. And we are not talking about the well-known age changes. Emotional outbursts, typical for teenagers, the girl would easily survive. She has a slightly more serious problem. When May is very angry or passionate about something, she turns into a giant red panda.
The animated film "I am a Panda" is the new project of director and screenwriter Domi Shea. In 2019, she won the Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film "Bao". She is shooting her full-length project at the Pixar studio. This is the second time in history that a project of the studio is directed by a female director.
