Members of D23, starts the journey with a visit to France for an in-depth
look at how the creative team at Walt Disney Imagineering brought the
spectacular world of Ratatouille to

In “It’s A Disney World After All,” D23 goes on a non-stop tour from Latin
America to the Middle East to look at Disney’s indelible mark on the rich
