Die Legende der Prinzessin Kaguya
One of Japan's favourite folk tales beautifully animated by the famous Studio Ghibli (The Walking Castle, Chihiro's Journey to Magic Land):
in a glowing bamboo trunk, an old childless bamboo collector finds a tiny girl who, under his care, grows supernaturally fast into an enchanting young woman. But the mysterious girl has a secret.
Takahata uses the centuries-old fable to tell of transience, the shallowness of wealth and materialism and the absurdity of socially prescribed roles. And all this in the most beautiful and delicate watercolours, which unfold a magic all of their own - hand-drawn with a wealth of humorous and loving details. An anime treasure of timeless beauty!
