From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Throughout their long history of film making, Pixar has created numerous critically acclaimed feature length animations, including classics such as Toy Story, Monsters Inc., Wall-E, and UP.

Often, alongside these films, the studio releases an animated short, many of which have gone on to win numerous awards, three of which have won academy awards for Best Animated Short Film.

Alongside Finding Dory, the studio released an adorable short titled Piper featuring a young Seagull and its quest to become self-sufficient. Unfortunately, while searching for food, the waves come crashing down, causing the Gull to be afraid of the Ocean. Eventually, the bird finds a way.

With the aforementioned Finding Nemo sequel finally being released on DVD and Blue-ray, “Piper” has found its way online. Watch below.

Recently, another short animation from the Pixar team emerged online, Borrowed Time, a much more sober affair compared with the studio’s normal output.

Finding Dory is released on DVD and Blue-ray 28 November in the UK.
