While defending his native village, young warrior Ashitaka is wounded by a demonic creature. He must abandon his tribe and embark on a journey in search of the Deer God, the only one who can heal him.

His journey takes him to a world torn by conflict.

A war rages between people who are possessed by the spirit of technological progress and cut down forests in search of iron, and the gods of the forest, fighting to protect nature and the life in it.

At the heart of this conflict is San, a wild and rebellious young woman raised by wolves, called Princess Mononoke. She has sworn to destroy humans and return the forest and mountain to the gods.

Torn between two worlds, Ashitaka searches for a path to peace while everyone around him is blinded by hatred, fear, and the desire for power.
