Film: Animation Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind (1984)

Hayao Miyazaki's atypical anime films make for magical affairs. One of his first transcendent syntheses of science fiction and fairy tale, Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind creates a nuked earth where Princess Nausicaä and her people of the Valley of the Wind strive against hostile surviving clans and fantastically colossal crustaceans. As the weight-of-the-world heroine, Nausicaä must negotiate an uneasy peace between these warring survivors. With a humanistic concern that has rarely infiltrated the animated ranks, Miyazaki's exquisitely made-up world is pure wonder.
