While protecting his village from rampaging boar-god/demon,
a confident young warrior, Ashitaka, is stricken by a deadly curse.
To save his life, he must journey to the forests of the west.
Once there, he's embroiled in a fierce campaign
that humans were waging on the forest.
The ambitious Lady Eboshi and her loyal clan use
their guns against the gods of the forest and a brave
young woman, Princess Mononoke, who was raised by a wolf-god.
Ashitaka sees the good in both sides and tries to stem the
flood of blood. This is met be animosity by both sides as
they each see him as supporting the enemy.
