About The Tale of the Princess Kaguya

From legendary STUDIO GHIBLI cofounder Isao Takahata comes this hand-drawn masterpiece revisiting Japan's most famous folktale. Found inside a shining stalk of bamboo by an old bamboo cutter and his wife, a tiny girl grows rapidly into an exquisite young lady. The mysterious young princess enthralls all who encounter her — but ultimately she must confront her fate and the punishment for her crime.

Directed by: Isao Takahata
Language: Japanese with English subtitles
Running time: 137 minutes

"You won't see a lusher, more gorgeous film." — The Verge

"Ravishing." — NPR
