Studio Ghibli Summer Film Series – Princess Mononoke by Hayao Miyazaki

Time: 11am (Dubbed in English); 2pm (In Japanese, subtitled in English); (134 min., Rated PG-13)
Cost: $5 with paid museum admission (children ages 3 and under free).

Princess Mononoke is a landmark of animation and a film of unsurpassed power and beauty. An epic story of conflict between humans, gods, and nature, the film has been universally acclaimed by critics and broke box office records on its original release in Japan. While defending his village from a demonic boar-god, the young warrior Ashitaka becomes afflicted with a curse that grants him super-human power in battle but will eventually take his life. Traveling west to find a cure or meet his destiny, he journeys deep into the sacred depths of the Great Forest where he meets San (Princess Mononoke), a girl raised by wolf-gods who are waging battle against the human outpost of Iron Town, on the edge of the forest. Princess Mononoke is a force of nature – with blood-smeared lips, riding bareback on a great white wolf, doing battle with both gods and humans, she is as iconic a figure as any from film, literature, or opera.
