'Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind' is another anime film by famed animator Hayao Miyazaki. Like 'Princess Mononoke', which is perhaps Miyazaki's most important and famous work, 'Nausicaa' has an environmental message. The film's protagonist is Princess Nausicaa (from the Valley of the Wind), who is a surprisingly skillful fighter and air glider. However, even with her skills in violence, Nausicaa is a very peaceful and nature-loving person. Nausicaa's love of peace, nature, and animals is tested when conflict arises between her people and the Tolmekians, a violent and war-like kingdom that wants to use a powerful weapon to destroy an entire forest.
