  • CASTLE IN THE SKY is Miyazaki’s masterpiece of fantasy & flight! Somewhere high in the clouds floats the legendary island of Laputa. Pazu and Sheeta is in a race against time to find Laputa before soldiers from the aerial dreadnought Goliath and the man who leads them, Muska, get there first. Muska has his eyes on power, and he alone knows how to activate the castle’s ancient superweapons that could make him master of the world. Can Pazu and Sheeta stop his sinister plan?
  • PRINCESS MONONOKE mixes fantasy, history and Japanese folklore into a glorious epic! Marked with the curse of a rampaging boar god, young Ashitaka sets off on a journey to cure his mysterious affliction. From behind the walls of an iron-mining town, Lady Eboshi arises to smash all obstacles to technological development. And from out of the forest comes Princess Mononoke, driven by a hatred of all humans. Can she and Ashitaka ally in time to stop the wild lands from being destroyed?
