Princess Mononoke

After his village is attacked by a possessed boar, Ashitaka finds himself inflicted by a curse that threatens to spread throughout his entire body. The village elders suggest that he travel west where rumours are abound of a Deer God who is capable of curing all. On his travels, Ashitaka seeks shelter at a village of iron miners where he discovers a furious battle is underway between the humans and the animals. The animals are led by Princess Mononoke, a human girl raised by Wolves, who is adamant to keep her new family safe whilst the humans are really only attempting to do the same. Ashitaka does his utmost to cool the feud but he must also concentrate on removing his curse, a task becoming increasingly difficult as a group of hunters look to find the Deer God for their own purposes.
