So here we will discuss Nausicaa of the Valley Wind

Discussion Prompts:

Here's some prompts you may respond to if you want. You, of course, don't have to respond to the prompts and can just say whatever is on your mind about the story. However if you're drawing a blank hopefully responding to a prompt will incite some meaningful discussion.

1. This film, like some of Miyazaki's other works, is kinda aimed at kids but also kinda not. It's a lot more violent than I remembered it, for instance. How does it work as a kid's film, thematically or otherwise? How does it hold up aimed at adults?

2. Are there any evil characters in the film? Nausicaa strives for peace and reconciliation throughout the movie. Is she fighting against "evil" forces or just misguidedness?
