Synopsis

Princess Mononoke is a story about a confident young warrior named Ashitaka who is protecting his village from a rampaging boar-god/demon. However, he is stricken by a deadly curse in the process.

To save his life, Ashitaka must journey to the forests of the west where he becomes embroiled in a fierce campaign that humans are waging on the forest.

The ambitious Lady Eboshi and her loyal clan use their guns against the gods of the forest and a brave young woman, Princess Mononoke, who was raised by a wolf-god.

Ashitaka sees the good in both sides and tries to stem the flood of blood, but his actions are met with animosity by both sides as they see him as supporting the enemy.
