A new short film from Pixar called Bao will premiere in front of The Incredibles 2 [3], which hits theatres June 15. The seven-and-a-half-minute film is about a woman's handmade dumpling that comes to life and gives her a second chance at motherhood. Previously suffering from depression over her empty nest, the mother's dumpling "baby" reminds her about loving and protecting a child. Oh my gosh — everything about it is beyond adorable.

Entertainment Weekly got an exclusive first look at Bao [4] and shared the cutest illustrations of the smiley dumpling cuddling up to its mamma. In addition to filling us with every possible emotion and driving home a valuable lesson (Pixar's specialty), we predict this screening will leave us with a serious craving for soup dumplings.

The film's writer and director director, Domee Shi [5] — Pixar's first-ever female director of a short — was inspired by her own upbringing as the only child to Chinese immigrants. "Often times it felt like my mom would treat me like a precious little dumpling, wanting to make sure I was safe, that I didn't go out late, all that stuff," Domee told Entertainment Weekly. "I just wanted to create this magical, modern-day fairy tale, kind of like a Chinese Gingerbread Man story."

As if we couldn't be more excited to make plans to see The Incredibles 2, this sealed the deal — or the dough? If you'll excuse me, I'm going to order some dumplings and watch the above clip on repeat!
