Mononoke Hime Poster

The latest (and possibly the last) film directed by Miyazaki, "Mononoke Hime" is a story about a mystic fight between the Animal Gods of the forest and humans, which takes place in the Muromachi Period (1333-1568) of Japan.

On the side of the Animal Gods is San (Mononoke Hime), a human girl who was raised by a wolf god. On the side of the humans is Lady Eboshi, who tries to build a kingdom for oppressed people, by cutting down the forest for her iron making operation.

In the middle of this fierce fighting for survival, Ashitaka, an Emishi boy, struggles to find a way for both sides to coexist. But the fighting just becomes more and more bloody and all hope seem to be lost...
