'''''Mulan''''' is a 1998 [[cartoon]] [[film]] released by the [[Walt Disney]] corporation. The film is set in [[China]] during an invasion by the [[Huns]].
Mulan is a young [[woman]] who, following the custom of her people, is sent to a matchmaker for an arranged [[marriage]], but is rejected as unworthy to marry for her clumsiness, which carries a scourge of dishonor on her family. Meanwhile as the Huns invade China, her crippled father is drafted to fight the Huns. Mulan sneaks out of the house and disguises herself as a man to take the place of her father, and becomes a hero by helping defeat the Huns.
==Criticism==
The underlying message in ''Mulan'' is [[feminism]]. The film frequently takes aim at the custom in her society that women are unfit to fight. The film also has a strong [[occult]] content, including worship of ancestral spirits, and a miniature [[dragon]] who has a central role in the movie serving as Mulan's [[familiar spirit]]; this makes ''Mulan'' questionable fare for [[Christian]] youth to view without parental guidance.
