I firmly believe Ilya would sob his guts out watching Encanto, to the point of Shane being genuinely concerned and frantically thinking of what kind of aftercare would be appropriate.
Come to think of it, he would probably identify with every one of the main characters: Mirabel = being not good enough, desperately wanting to be heard and seen Bruno = being ostracized by his family, wanting a connection Luisa = carrying the responsibility without having anyone to share it with Isabela = the expectation of being perfect and successful Abuela Alma = losing a loved one way too early, needing to protect everyone you love
For months after, just mentioning Encanto is enough to make Ilya's lips tremble. Which leads to a set of new rules in the Hollander-Rozanov household: 1. We don't talk about Encanto 2. ***IF*** we talk about Encanto, we do it only on days we don't plan to go out anymore, because Ilya is going to be teary and clingy like a baby sloth 🦥
