The young prince Ashitaka defends his village from an attack by a giant, angry boar. He is wounded and gains supernatural strength and agility, but is doomed to a quick death. The young man sets out to find a cure: in his journey, he meets the Lady of Iron Town, the Great Forest Spirit, the wolf goddess and the girl raised by her, whom everyone calls Princess Mononoke. Set in a universe of Shinto mythology, but full of modern ideas about the relationship between man and nature, the film finally cemented Hayao Miyazaki’s worldwide fame as a director and artist.

Shot from Mononoke-hime, 1997

The majestic pageant of images—no sylvan landscape has been this indelibly, dimensionally alive—is inextricably welded to the multifold spiritual / ecological questions about the future that Miyazaki is contemplating..
