Nausicaä, the princess of a
small nation, lives in a world devastated by a holocaust called the
"Seven Days of Fire". She tries to stop other warring nations from
destroying themselves and from destroying the only means by which their
world can be saved from the spread of polluted wastelands.
Around the mid 1980s, a severely-edited version of
this film was released in video under the title Warriors of the
Wind. The editing was done without the knowledge of Miyazaki or
Studio Ghibli. They were unhappy when they learned about it and want
those who have seen it "to dismiss it from [their] minds."
