A thousand years after a global war, a seaside kingdom known as the Valley of the Wind remains one of only a few areas still populated. Led by the courageous Princess Nausicaa, the people of the Valley are engaged in a constant struggle with powerful insects called Ohmu, who guard a poisonous jungle that is spreading across the Earth. Nausicaa and her brave companions, together with the people of the Valley, strive to restore the bond between humanity and the Earth...

Classic Japanese anime feature directed by Hayao Miyazaki, set in a distant future after human civilisation has been wiped out in a global war known as the Seven Days of Fire. In the isolated Valley of the Wind, Princess Nausicaä (voice of Sumi Shimamoto) rules over a small group of survivors, the valley bordered on all sides by a toxic jungle guarded by monstrous insect creatures. This equilibrium is about to be disturbed though, as a new struggle for earthly domination threatens to unfold.
