Summary: |
The story takes place one thousand years after the "Seven Days of Fire", an apocalyptic war which destroyed human civilization and most of the Earth's original ecosystem. Scattered human settlements survive, isolated from one another by the Toxic jungle, a forest of giant plants and fungi swarming with giant insects, and other arthropods which seem to come together only to wage war. Everything in the Toxic Jungle including the air is lethally toxic. NausicaƤ is a charismatic young princess of the peaceful Valley of the Wind. Although a skillful fighter, NausicaƤ is humane and peace-loving. She has an unusual gift for communicating with the giant insects (particularly with the Ohmu, gigantic, armored, caterpillar- or isopod-like insects who are the most intelligent creatures in the Toxic Jungle.) She is also noted for her empathy toward animals, humans, and other beings. An intelligent girl, and inspired by the Valley's Lord Yupa, a wandering warrior possessed of great wisdom, NausicaƤ frequently explores the Toxic Jungle and conducts scientific experiments in an attempt to define the true nature and origins of the toxic world in which she lives. |

Another work from Studio Ghibli and Hayao Miyazaki which earned this film Animage of 1984 and you will see why. It is an absolutely must watch, in order to see the quality of hand drawn anime as well as superb original japanese voice acting. The story is intriguing as well as teaches a lesson about 'being green' in a sense and loving everything about the world, and this was made in 1984!
Studio Ghibli at its finest
