And there's your conflict for the movie.

"Where's the villain? Who's the villain?".

Don't you get it? There is NO "villain". The conflict comes from Riley's emotions not being able to work together, and how her everyday life affects her emotions.

That's it.You don't need a villain or an antagonist to create conflict, or even to tell a good story.

Again, look at the Studio Ghibli movies.All of them have conflict, but none of them have a villain or an antagonist. "Inside Out" is gonna be like "Whisper of the Heart" or "My Neighbor Totoro", creating a compelling story just by following Riley's life.
