Description:
The march of technology,​ embodied in the dark iron forges of the ambitious Tatara clan,​ threatens the natural forces explicit in the benevolent Great God of the Forest and the wide-eyed,​ spectral spirits he protects.​ When Ashitaka,​ a young warrior from a remote and endangered village clan,​ kills a ravenous,​ boar-like monster,​ he discovers the beast is in fact an infectious "demon god,​" transformed by human anger.​

Inflicted with its deadly curse,​ the young warrior sets out to the forests of the west in search of the cure that will save his life.​ Once there,​ he becomes inextricably entangled in a bitter battle that matches Lady Eboshi and a proud clan of humans against the forest's animal gods - who are led by the brave Princess Mononoke,​ a young woman raised by wolves!
