Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind (1984)

Kaze no Tani no Nausicaa / 風の谷のナウシカ

Information

Description

A thousand years ago, enormous creatures destroyed practically the entire civilization; among the few survivors, this event went down in history as the “Seven Days of Fire”. At that time, the “Sea of Rot” was also created – a vast, poisonous forest of fungi that is still expanding today, whose spores are sheer poison to most living things and therefore make large parts of the planet uninhabitable for humans.

The Valley of Winds is – thanks to the updrafts from the nearby sea – one of the few regions left for humanity to live. Nausicaä, the princess of the local people, is a young woman who, despite her warlike skills, prefers peace. Though, that very peace is severely disturbed when a transport ship belonging to the kingdom of Torumekia crashes near the valley.

A short time later, Torumekian forces, led by Princess Kushana, invade the valley to claim the cargo of the crashed ship: the embryo of one of the creatures that once decimated humanity. After being grown in the valley, it is to burn the poisonous mushroom forest, but this project could further worsen living conditions on the planet.
Vor 1000 Jahren zerstörten gewaltige, von Menschenhand geschaffene Kreaturen praktisch die gesamte Zivilisation; bei den wenigen Überlebenden ging dieses Ereignis als die »Sieben Tage des Feuers« in die Geschichte ein. Damals entstand auch das »Meer der Fäulnis« – ein gewaltiger, giftiger Wald aus Pilzen, der sich auch heute noch ausdehnt, dessen Sporen blankes Gift für die meisten Lebewesen sind und daher weite Teile des Planeten für Menschen unbewohnbar macht.

Das Tal der Winde gehört – dank der Aufwinde vom nahe gelegenen Meer – zu den wenigen Regionen, die der Menschheit noch zum Leben geblieben sind. Nausicaä, die Prinzessin des ansässigen Volkes, ist eine junge Frau, die trotz ihres kriegerischen Geschicks den Frieden bevorzugt. Doch eben jener Frieden wird empfindlich gestört, als ein Transportschiff des Königreichs Torumekia nahe des Tals abstürzt.

Wenig später fallen torumekische Streitkräfte, angeführt von Prinzessin Kushana, ins Tal ein, um die Ladung des abgestürzten Schiffes einzufordern: den Embryo einer der Kreaturen, die einst die Menschheit dezimierten. Nachdem sie im Tal herangezüchtet worden ist, soll sie den giftigen Pilzwald verbrennen, doch gerade dieses Vorhaben könnte die Lebensverhältnisse auf dem Planeten noch weiter verschlechtern.
