What is the plot for Elemental?
Elemental takes audiences into the center of a city where the four elements of fire, water, land, or air all live together. While they may not always get along, they do their best to live in harmony. “Fiery young” female Ember meets “go-with-the-flow” water elemental Wade on public transport, and though they realize that fire and water may not always mix well on the surface, they could have more in common than either of them imagined.
Director Peter Sohn said of his inspiration for the movie: “My parents emigrated from Korea in the early 1970s and built a bustling grocery store in the Bronx. We were among many families who ventured to a new land with hopes and dreams—all of us mixing into one big salad bowl of cultures, languages, and beautiful little neighborhoods. That’s what led me to Elemental.”
