A rat named Remy
dreams of becoming a
great chef despite his
family’s wishes and the
obvious problem of
being a rat in a decidedly rodent-phobic
profession. When fate
places Remy in the city
of Paris, he is living
beneath a restaurant
made famous by his
culinary hero, Auguste
Gusteau. Remy forms an unlikely partnership with
Linguini, the garbage boy, who discovers Remy’s
amazing talents. They strike a deal and turn the
culinary world of Paris upside down. Remy finds
himself torn between following his dreams or
living his life as a rat. He learns the truth about
friendship, family and having to be who he really
is – a rat who wants to be a chef.
