Princess Mononoke
’Verse Jumping with Daniels
February 3 - 9, 2023
Hayao Miyazaki’s breathtaking epic spirits viewers away to a folkloric world of gods, demons, and magic in which humans and animals—led by Princess Mononoke, aka San, a fierce warrior woman raised by wolves—battle for control of a mythological forest.
Hayao Miyazaki’s breathtaking epic spirits viewers away to a folkloric world of gods, demons, and magic. After he’s stricken with a fatal curse, a young prince journeys westward in search of a cure, only to find himself embroiled in an epic struggle between humans and animals—led by Princess Mononoke, aka San, a fierce warrior woman raised by wolves—for control of the ancient deer god’s forest. Overflowing with imagination and visual beauty, this modern-day masterpiece stands as a singular achievement in animation: a morally complex, feminist fable with an impassioned message of ecological stewardship.
“A masterpiece. Also a confusing film to see as a kid. We couldn’t decide if we were in love with the Princess or wanted to be her. Still not sure.”—Daniels
