14 years after My Neighbor the Yamadas, Studio Ghibli co-founder Takahata Isao finally returns with The Tale of Princess Kaguya. Based on one of Japan’s oldest folk tales, Kaguya depicts the melancholic story of a little girl from another realm that quickly grows from a baby to a beautiful princess. A poetic story of mortality, the price of beauty and what it means to be human, Kaguya is a handsomely drawn and immensely beautiful animated epic that was eight years in the making.

While working in the woods, a woodcutter finds a beam of light on a bamboo stalk. Within it is a tiny delicate girl so beautiful that the woodcutter assumes that she is a princess of sorts. After taking her home, the little girl immediately transforms into a human baby. As the baby now named Kaguya – quickly matures, the woodcutter finds gold in other bamboo stalks and uses them to buy his adopted daughter’s way into becoming a princess. Growing into a gorgeous princess, Kaguya attracts the attention of many suitors, but she laments her lack of freedom and begins to question the purpose of living a life behind closed doors..
